Re: Musgrave miniature rifle
What parts can move? Can the bolt cycle?

Re: Musgrave miniature rifle
I have almost completed a case with accessories for the half scale miniature Musgrave rifle, including a new leather sling and one half scale dummy .308 Winchester round. When complete I will post a picture.
To answer another question, there are no moving parts inside. The bolt retracts a short distance (10-15mm) using the lever and the safety lever moves but nothing else. Trigger does not move either.

Re: Musgrave miniature rifle
OK, at last. Apart from the edging of the leather sling, the miniature Musgrave rifle has now been cased with made up accessories. I'm afraid I am not forking out R400 to R500 for a small bottle of leather edge paint. I will have to find a way. Burnishing does not work with such thin supple leather, not for me anyway.

Sweet, you asked for a measure so I have included a tape.
The case was made for me out of red wood which has a very nice grain.

An exquisite piece Vicwait.
The cased rifle and accessories all complement each other.
