There is a deluxe 37 on the next Holts main sale list: https://www.holtsauctioneers.com/asp/fullcatalogue.asp?salelot=A1224+++1597+&refno=++221641&saletype= I've not seen one before. It seems to have a painted, rather than blued receiver.

They are brilliant. Far superior to a Mossberg in my opinion. Tang mounted safety catch and bottom ejecting. They are well made.

I've had some absolute bargains and also overpaid when I've got excited. Auctions should be approached with caution but there's often a gem to be found.

This is a fantastic thread for a layman like me to follow, thank you. Only on Pigeonwatch! Well done for saving this gun. -
Hi Paul, that looks very useful. I would take one in white if possible. Thanks!

Absolutely beautiful -
That's an absolute beauty! How does it shoot? Is the crown a Royal appointment mark?

Most are being pinned now when converting to S2. It comes down to the Proofmaster's interpretation of the legislation. The Birmingham proof House has certainly proofed a number of take down guns where the magazine stays attached to the barrel.

I took a new to me A5 that i picked up from Holts last week. It has a 31.5" ribbed barrel. I was amazed to find it cycle 24 gram shells flawlessly!
-
A lovely gun. Is the take down still functional?

I started with a Suzuki Bandit 600 before moving to a Triumph ST1050 (stonking engine). Currently I ride a KTM 1290SDGT and also have a 690 SMCR for a bit of fun. Both super torquey, amusing machines. I also have an ongoing project 1975 Honda CB750 which was already converted to a brat bike when I bought it... my friends said it was a silly idea and I would barely ride it, so far they are right!

What a find! -
So my 80 series is in fact an economy offroader!
-
Yes! The 4.5 petrol even worse, I've seen as low as 13mpg on mine! This is why so many were LPG converted.

If you can find an 80 series landcruiser that doesn't have terrible rust then that would be my choice. No longer as cheap as they were unfortunately. Alternatively a prado (sold here as the Landcruiser) with the d4d engine. The 80 series is built to a different standard than a land rover and like the defender has a solid front axle and can be had with three differential locks, very capable offroad.
