Winchester 1873 Sporting Rifle & S.D. Myres Rifle Scabbard.

Post by rangerider7 »

This is how I decided to display the scabbard. Both the rifle and Bisley are 38-40. The sign to the left is just a prop. The rifle is not for sale. :D

Very nice. I'd be worried though that someone might fling their arm over the back of the sofa and knock the rifle over.

The stand was custom made with a wide bottom just for that reason. No offence to women. We must be politically correct. :D

That is a very fine '73. Thanks for posting that photo of it.
