Hello I have a clone or something like a winchester 52. The kicker is it is not a repeater and has british proofs.
I am hoping somebody can tell me if the receiver was made in Britain.
The receiver has the BV and BNP Birmingham marks. The barrel has only a BNP mark.
The receiver came to the U.S. and a barrel fitted by Eric Johnson sometime after 1953. Shouldn't the receivers origin have been marked upon import?
Anyway take a look at the odd duck and tell me what you think. Thanks in advance. Roger
