I now own a Rolling Block but know nothing about them.
The barrel is marked 7mm. I assume 7x57. The ID of the barrel looks like a well used sewer pipe. I'm going to re-barrel it in .38-55. I have dies and a mold, etc. for that chambering. But I'll keep all the original parts. I have an octagon barrel so I'l need to come up with a new forend. This has a long skinny “bayonet” (I think that's what it is). But I'll keep all the original parts.
What I'd like to know is what “model” is it? From what I found on the internet there were several different models of the rifle. Serial number is on the tang of the receiver (had to remove the butt stock), 4 digits, 47XX. On the underside of the barrel at the joint of the receiver is either V2 or maybe W2?
Any ID help out there?
Thanks! Tom
