Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I finally found one like new.

The gun was shot it 5 times and put it away. I bought it for bluebook of $475. What a nice gun that H+R copied!

If you think such folks are impressed by the .45-70 cartridge, imagine how they'd react to the British Empire military cartridges of the same era .... which I regularly shoot .... the .577 Snider-Enfield and .577/.450 Martini-Henry, shown here flanking their li'l American cousin .....
