why did you have to mention simplson ltd, i went and their home page has about 20 rifles ive wondered about for years, at prices i havent SEEN in 15 years.
Well Im not interested in, or a proponent of light bullets at high velocities in any firearm.

Those early cartridges has a very short military life sadly, and even shorter life on the civilian market. But they can do wonders on game animals.
But yes, they were superceded by the 45-70 for...

on that adapter, do you need to take it out of the barrel for cleaning? ANd if you remove the adapter, how exactly do you ensure that the adapter goes back into the barrel in a way that will leave...
there is a model 28 at collectors for 799 that someone did a bad nickel plate on, but further researching the ad says "fair bore, minor pitting". But yeah, guns does have some that are really nice...
saw that one on collectors,, the price is nice, especially if you can get the smith and wesson factory refinish done. thats what only 300$ if i recall.
