When I was younger (much younger) I wanted to 'take' a black bear with spear and a sword. Invoke a charge, and impale the bear on the spear (with cross tree), then jump to the side and off with his head using the sword.
Never got around to it. LOL

two jaeger rifles

one Cristian Zimmermann around 1750, later change for percussion priming with what I would say reparable minor problems don#t sell for 999 euro
https://www.egun.de/market/item.php?id=19033650















the other G.A. Stormer in Herzberg 1840-1870 made in very good shape sold for 2540 euro
https://www.egun.de/market/item.php?id=19082088













looks like the customer prefer pristine and perfect stuff

16mm .63 cal. Wonder what the rate of twist is. Most Jaegers had quite fast ROT's.

VERY nice. Probably would pattern quite well too, with such long tubes, the muzzle-blast/pressure would be very low.

Excellent cap fragment capture on that one, lancaster.

The inside locks are pretty cool too, but might obscure vision somewhat.
