bobthenailer Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 For Sale: I bought this as a birthday present for my Dad as we have been looking for a L/H AW for years. I missed out on both Sporting Services limited run of LH rifles. Due to my Dad deciding to move to Spain permanently it sadly had come too late. I bought this from a dealer blind on the phone and have never even handled it in person but I’m told it’s in fantastic condition with an almost new 26” Brl, tactical break and short suppressor. These are like hen’s teeth as I have spent years trying to find one… unfortunately I found one a little too late. I would like to see my money back so I’m asking £4K. The rifle is lodged with the RFD that I bought it from and arrangements can be made to view. Photos to follow. Kind regards, Bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plumber Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 you might wish to mention the caliber and colour/phots . good luck as a lefty we seem to pay a premium when you want one, and get screwed when we sell ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brillo Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 It took me over 6 months to sell my AW, and several price reductions. I hope you have better luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobthenailer Posted March 8, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 Sorry chaps.308/7.62 Green Fixed stock. Took forever to find a leftie… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L42A1 Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 Doesn't look like a folder, the hinge mech isn't there, looks like the fixed variant to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobthenailer Posted March 8, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 Apologies, you are correct. I have just spoken with the RFD… as I said I haven’t personally even held it. I was told it was a folder and didn’t look at the picture too closely and bought it blind on the telephone. Thank you for pointing it out, it will save any future issues. Kind regards, Bob.

Bertie Bee Posted March 8, 2023 Report Share Posted March 8, 2023 Amazing rifle. Great price, especially with the incredible rare old style stock sides, full spec with butt spike and suppressor. Good luck with the sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree that it's a great rifle and very best of luck to the OP with the sale. FYI regarding the specs, the stock sides fitted to the OP's rifle are not the now rare-as-hen's-teeth original AW pattern - the picture below shows what the original pattern non-folder AW308 stock sides looked like.

bobthenailer Posted March 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 No, I have never shot it as it’s left handed… in fact I have never even held it as it was delivered to my RFD after I bought it blind on the telephone. My RFD found a buyer for it and it has gone 👍👍👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobthenailer Posted March 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2023 Possibly could have been the new owner zeroing in? My RFD did the deal this morning and he’s not too far from the Tunnel 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
