Kinda early Lancaster style ain't it?  Fine looking armament.

Oooh! Carries a Jim Chambers!  Oy, 'e's a roit gennelman, like.  'Ats off to the toff, boyo's!  Back off, ye gits, make way for yer betters!   ;)


Honestly, I have never heard of someone getting the grubby end of the stick on a deal with Jim's outfit.  Quality products and seriously honest customer service.
