Below is a question posted in another shooting group:

Quote:

am trying to find some details on a .22rimfire target rifle made by J.H.Barnet or Burnet. I believe that W Richards of Liverpool made or finished them any help or pictures of an actual rifle greatly appreciated.

Can anyone help?

Thank you

We have one in regular use in our club.
Post me an "E" mail address and I will get the owner to contact you.
Fred.
