Frasier action from Cape Outfitters
« on: February 24, 2004, 04:12:02 AM »
A few years ago Cape Outfitters imported a small single shot as a kit.  Does anyone have one to sell or where can I find it.  I believe it was called a Fraiser.  Thanks in advance

Les,

That small Fraser single-shot action was made in Italy and named after the Scottish design, rather than being an exact copy of it or by them.

Frank de Haas wrote up a review of the .22 rifle in Rifle Magazine in the late 80's, and apparently the production (at that time) had some problems with broken firing pins and reliability.

I remember the ads for kits too.  Sorry, but dunno where to find one.
