Sometimes I wonder if you are a gun collector or a pro photographer! All said and done, you tastes are superb in both senses!

Thanks everyone.

This is one of the higher quality boxlocks sold by William Evans with intercepting sears, you don't see intercepting sears on most boxlocks.

It is made in 1917, so it is nearly a 100 years old.
