Rick The Approved Arms list that John posted is very current. The P-H Withworth is not on the list because it's not an approved firearm for the N-SSA.I hope that helps. That said it is a great long range rifle in the right hands. Wayne Shaw Harlans Light Cav SAC

oh, well thank you, very much, I would love to have one but oh well, maybe some day they will add this gun to the list that way i could shoot one. i guess, there is an advantage of shooting this gun and maybe thats why it is not approved. oh well, nice gun tho.
