I Got My Pay-Up Letter

Post by Buffalo Bob »

I got my "pay up" letter for a Model 1863 Military Rifle. :) Anyone else out there get one? Naturally, I sent my money in. I wonder how long it will be before it's done.

I'm going to say that I borrowed it from a dead Yankee with a green uniform. Too bad for him it can't shoot as far as a Whitworth. :twisted:[/img]

A good Sharps can usually usually shoot a lot faster than any hex-bored Whitworth. A lot cleaner to shoot as well.....

Got my letter to. Sent the money in and am now waiting.

Am getting a .50 cal. I hope there will be no problem getting a bullet mold for it since everyone seems to shoot .54. I am hoping it will shoot a little flatter than a .54. We shall see.

Am in the process of joining a shooting club here in the People's Republic of California. Oh, how I long for the days of living in Arizona, Wyoming and Montana where these asinine restrictions on gun ownership don't exist.
