Hello all,
I stumbled onto this site and found the posts very interesting.

I live in Western Australia and have had a long-standing interest in all sorts of firearms. I currently own the following rifles:
Winchester Model 94 in .30-30,
Original Martini Cadet in .310,
Sportco Martini Sporting rifle in .22LR,
W.W. Greener Martini Sporting Rifle in .357 Magnum,
Winchester 1885 Low Wall in .22 WCF, and
W.W. Greener Sporting Rifle in .32-40.

I am a retired Army officer turned farmer and live about 250 km south-east of Perth in WA.
