I just picked up my Martini from the 'smith. I was having him install a front globe sight. It's a work in progress for sure but we're having a ball with it.
Rebarreled to .32 S&W Long. Fitted with a Parker Hale rear aperture and (now) a Lyman globe front. The wood needs stripping and finish and the forearm needs to be shortened and recontoured. Then the wood bits bedded.
Loaded with 77gr lead RN meant for the .32ACP, it's like a cap gun going off. Giggles abound. With 100gr SWC's it looks to be a solid bunnygun.
I'll try and snap some pics and post later on.
