| Guys,
I need an Original Martini-Henry rifle early type long cocking indicator for my MkII. While the one I have works, it looks like it was trampled over by Durnfords cavalry…
And yes, I have checked Mr. Aspenshaws site as well as IMA, alas, no joy.

| If you can't wait to pick one up then Peter Dyson does have them sometimes in the UK but at silly money IMO - I would wait and see what comes along in the scrap boxes at shows personally - a lot of old .22 conversions get broken up for the spares [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

| timothylrose,
Thank you very much for your assist. Regrettably, Mr. Dyson, Numrich, and every other vendor, regardless of location, that I could find using my Google-fu were of no help. I know someone out there has one, I will just keep checking.
Respectfully,

| I'll keep an eye open as I say lots of scrapped .22 and .303 conversions around turn up for spares - be safe |

| timothylrose,
Thank you sir. If I may ask, are you located in the U.K. or perhaps stateside? I am in the U.S., specifically, Washington State.
