Wow, nice rifle! Never knew they made such a thing. :mrgreen:

Too bad the new reproductions don't offer a pistol gripped version. That would certainly sell some rifles.

Glad you got what you wanted... Beautiful wood!... The grail for me would be a pristine 95 Russian Musket

I suppose you'll be using that to win the levergun matches at Baker and Ekalaka?

I'll bring it to Baker for the spring shoot. I may not win, but I'll sure look good losing.
