Sorry wrong photo!!
You got wood. Traditional wood.
Yep love the “traditional” rifles
Some of the collections above are beautiful!!!
My two BPCR’s that are getting the most use of all of my rifles at the moment.
Top is a 1874 Shiloh Sharps in .40-70 Straight Sharps that is my silhouette rifle.
Bottom is a CPA Stevens in .45-90 that I use for long range and silhouette. ( Note the sight height, that’s the 1000 yard setting. )
Funny @danmac. I can just see it, everyone shooting modern tactical stuff at 100m and then there’s @danmac with iron sighted 1000yd shot. Shoots, drops mic, has a beer. Boss. LOL
Very nice. A sharps is on my wish list.
Here’s my pedersoli 45-70 highwall. Haven’t had a chance to stretch it out to 1000 yards yet. Have put a few shots on an 18” plate at 600 yards but mostly it’s 100-300m at the range.
.Probably look better with a barrel shroud.
Is that one of those warwick fa1 something or rathers
Yep a WFA1. Short upper is 14” 300 blackout. Longer is 16” 223 wylde.
So mate I have paid off all my new guns, what do you want for that Stevens goose gun?
Alright, so a couple of new toys…
#1 Rossi Coach
I have been complaining about not being able to find one, in appropriate condition and price point for a while. @GUN-DMC will probably be relieved now, that he doesn’t have to listen to my whinging on the topic.
Exactly what I wanted, a side-by-side 20" hammer coach shotty.
Now I have a badass, dedicated slug gun Don’t think less of me, but I will be putting a recoil pad on it (sleeve).
and a Ruger American compact (1 - 4 scope added later). Always wanted one, couldn’t resist when it came up on Usedguns, locally…
Sighted it in, for practical accuracy so to speak, still need to tune… I quite like it, everything I expected it to be. I like my BL-22 a lot more, but that’s not something I’d be willing to destroy in the bush. This seems like an absolutely perfect combo of everything. Compact, rugged, lite, quite reliable, put 100 rounds through it - it shot them, yay. LOL
Seriously, I hate .22s.
Looks good. I’ve toyed with getting a nice side by side. Will see if I can remember where I got my butt pad for my lever shotty. Has a little bit of padding and looks better than the rubber slip on ones.
Found it. Ricochet Roy’s old west. I bought from his ebay shop but looks like he’s got a website now too. https://rroldwest.com
Yeah, nah, the cheapest pad is like half the price of the gun. Look very nice, but not for this girl.
