My .577/450 "wall hanger", a Rosier Martini-Henry Sporting Rifle from 1875. It was first bought as an antique "wall hanger". I was also looking at a mil Martini-Henry carbine in very good condition. Should have bought BOTH with hindsight. But money ....
Later I decided to register the rifle and see if it could be got shooting. Never have. So it is not a wall hanger now, a safe queen.
One day will shoot it. Maybe hunt something with it. Would be fun to have it shooting.
