Filling another gap - 1870

[Dick Hosmer]

Some go "long", others go "wide". I was in the latter group. An 1840 (inheirited), an 1842 and an 1863/64 do me for the early years, while a 1913 '03 and NRA Sporter take care of the "modern end". But I went wild in trapdoors, their contemporaries, and Krags. We all have our limits!

Good luck finding that one LOL!! I have been searching for many years with no luck.
Very nice rifle an collection lead snowstorm. I was watching that rifle on GB and forgot about it. Only wanted it for the stock and lock. Glad someone here got it, congratulations on filling one gap but as you already know one gap filled creates another.

True enough! Well, the 1855 came in and it looks almost too good to be true. I've been over and over it, with the Willyard book, and it *seems* alright. Gonna post up some pics in the black powder section.
