    Thanks guys for the comments.
    Andrew, This was an original CS, I have another sold by Sarum soldiers, which is totally different, the cast rifle is crap but he stands straight. I will have to source either a Lee Metford or Martini rifle.

    Superb figure well presented. I'd be happy to do some of these in 120 or 200mm but I doubt there's a market.

    Nice job. I wish I'd gotten more Chota Sahib figures

    As for the lean to the right (which I saw in more than one Marine Corps formation on the morning following payday): the Sgt. Major will soon have him sorted....

    Thank you Matt, I've also had that experience and then wondered why I got extra duties.

    Thanks Brian, you can still find them on evil bay and sometimes quite cheap. I had the luck to get this one, which is an original CS as opposed to the later one's produced by Sarum Soldiers. The quality is not there.
    Thanks again mate.

    A little gem for sure. I love the old Chota line. Wish I had more squirrelled away. Must dig some out and put some paint on them.
