Thought I would post a little bit of Ross stuff I have gathered over the years.

Nice! 4 MKIII's and a sporter? Are the MkIII's all original full-length stocks? Is the sporter a MKII? Are the two shorter bayonets for MkII? Never saw a metal cap on the scabbard like the one in the LH picture.

Three are full wood and the one has been cut ahead of the band. Unfortunately two are deacts, I say that because they perhaps don't have the monetary value of some, but they have their own story and I like them. One has a new barrel and the other a good used. The rifle second from left is I believe to be original. It has a stamped upper band, the rest are forged. The sportster is a 280. The bayos and knifes are I think all for the Mk11. They are stamped 1907. The short dark one is fairly well done and the scabbard is stamped 1909.

Thanks for sharing.....very nice !
Could you post a few close up pictures of the sporter in .280cal?
I'm still trying to put together my 280 sporter....I started with a boltless barreled action .
Basically all that I need to complete my project is a proper magazine(and floorplate)....I tried fabricating a few but they didn't quite turn out......

Thanks. Maybe some of the guys can help you out. My daughter helps me post pictures and she is away again for a while. Am on dial up and not very good with computers.
