gunboot Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Does anyone know anything about David Lloyd rifles? I googled it and came up with several matches one being on an air rifle forum which I'm not a member of. where someone states they are being manufactured again! I very much doubt this though! thanks Sid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 (edited) I know a little bit, as I used to have a DL rifle. I was also at the Holt's auction where the David Lloyd name, ledgers and goodwill were bought (I can't recall the buyer, but they were advertising repair jobs on DL rifles in Shooting Gazette or Shooting Times last month). The advert spoke of some improvements the new buyer was making to existing David Lloyd rifles. Personally I wouldn't buy one. They are heavy, and whilst the integrated scope seems a good idea, it is frustratingly lacking in versatility. I didn't own mine for long enough to notice the fabled torsion affecting the action/scope alignment and the resulting loss in accuracy.
