This morning I ran across a nice Thomas Bland single shot rifle.

It is currently for sale.

I don't own it. I'm not promoting it. I know nothing more about it than what I see in the listing.

These don't appear often, and it might be an opportunity for somebody to acquire a nice English break-open hammer single shot rifle. It classifies as an antique in the U.S., so it should be simple to import.

And here are the photos. I have archived them to the NE.com server.

I'm tempted myself, but I'm trying to pull back the reins. The years are creeping up on me.

It reminds me a bit of my Rigby; but in my opinion, it's not filed up quite as nicely. Still, it's a screamer. I like the caliber too.

Here's a link to my Rigby just for fun: John Rigby & Co. 40-70 Bottle Neck Single Shot Rifle #15130
