Offered here is a custom Birmingham Small Arms (BSA) Martini-pattern single-shot barreled action chambered in .22 caliber, serial number P74776, featuring a 23-inch half-octagon, half-round barrel and custom gunsmithing modifications. Built around the traditional British Martini falling-block action, this example features a distinctive barrel profile transitioning from an octagonal breech section to a round forward section, with a bright metal finish. Particularly noteworthy is the attractive color case hardening present on the receiver, falling block, and operating lever, displaying pronounced blue, purple, bronze, and gold coloration. The action is fitted with a custom-contoured operating lever, departing from the traditional military Martini configuration. The metalwork exhibits careful fitting and finishing, with the receiver and operating components remaining in excellent overall condition. A localized area of finish loss is visible on the left side of the receiver, along with scattered light handling marks. The 23-inch barrel retains a bright bore, and the action operates well. Offered without a buttstock or forearm, this barreled action represents an appealing example of custom Martini single-shot gunsmithing, combining the classic British falling-block design with distinctive custom metalwork and a half-octagon barrel configuration.
