Saw this on Ebay a few weeks ago, and got if for 21 quid, googled Eynesford and it seems this was a test range used by Maxim Nordenfelt and later Vickers until post WW2. Someone had used it as a hammer and dented the case mouth which was easily sorted after annealing. My question is what is the significance of the date?
The engraving is top quality and points towards a presentation piece. The history of the range is very interesting itself,yet I had never heard of it. Any info or extra info on the site,pics etc welcome. Cheers tig.
