Pedersoli trapdoor officers rifle
I m thinking about buying a new gun basically for deer hunting and woods loafing and I m considering the Pedersoli officers trapdoor rifle.Does anyone have any experience with the Pedersoli version? I like the fact it has a set trigger and a rear sight besides having the tang sight

Re: Uberti 94 sporting rifle
I just read an article on the Uberti 94 in 38/55 written by Mike Venturino and he was shooting a hand load of 19 grains of western 5744 with a .380 cast bullet from an old RCBS # 38-255-FN

Uberti courteney selous stalking rifle
I saw one of the new Uberti courteney selous rifles today and though they are kind of butt ugly they might make a good deer rifle especially the new ones chambered for 45/70.After looking at the gun it started me thinking that a ruger no 1 with a properly done prince of Wales grip would look real ni...

Re: Uberti 94 sporting rifle
I just adopted the Cimarron/Uberti 94 in .38-55, with 26-inch octagon barrel. I may have a chance to shoot it today and will report. The action is extremely smooth, the hammer simply floats like butter to half cock and full cock and the trigger break is wonderfully clean. I am quite impressed at th...

I believe it was a trainer/target rifle I believe ,probably used more for a trainer as being made in 1943 probably not much target shooting going on and the sights are similar to what you would find on a Mauser 98.Also the nazis banned most private ownership of firearms so chances are it played a pa...
