I'm fairly sure he is another of the Foundry 'mini of the month' models.

Looks like the same head as the more heavily armed and armoured version I have, I think he was released about the same time, guessing at sometime in 2004.

If anyone knows of a supply of this chap, I'd like to get hold of one too, great model.  :)

It's a monthly limited edition model, Father Mc Sweeny I think.
The conversion with the modern rifle came together with a girl with sword.

Right. Father Pious McSweeney, Papal Enforcer.
Came free with any order from Foundry in June 2001.

The "modern version" is Father Eamon McSweeney (+ Elizabeth Anne McSweeney, in the same blister).

I have that figure, I am as yet undecided whether to sell him or keep him. For some reason I didn't like the figure when I received it. I bought mine on Ebay last year.
Drop me a PM if you are interested in him and we can discuss.
