My wait is over!

Post by lmontee »

Woohoo
My Roughrider is going to be shipped Monday.
Can't wait to see...literally, how my right eye handles those MVA sights after my cataract surgery? This will be my one and only Sharps, an early retirement gift to myself.
With luck I'll be at the range next weekend!

That's why I like to order direct from Shiloh: it gives me enough time between rifles to afford the next one . . .

That's an absolutely beautiful rifle! I wish that this site had a "like" button, but I'll just say that you made a great choice -- stunning! :shock:

PS -- Did I miss the chambering?

I ordered it April 15th 2020.
Covid delays etc. The 32" barrel and AAA finish probably added a lot of additional time.
I am absolutely pleased with it and thank the folks at Shiloh for their wonderful craftsmanship.
Well worth the wait!
