Some pics for Martin
      #116710 - 12/10/08 05:32 AM

Here are my two double front stuffers. With encouragement from Martin and other members on the board I picked up a .72 caliber Kodiak on an online live auction. Liked it so much that when a fellow member posted the .58 caliber here on the Nitro Classifieds, I had to pick it up also.



Business end!



The older version from Trail Guns has much nicer engravings.



The Trail Gun version has authentic express sights.




Add the three Baikals and I have 5!

Thank you very much.
So you have alot of double rifles.LOL....so you will need a gunbearer, so you can hunt with the .58 and have the .72 as stopping rifle.

Very interesting the picture of both kinds of rear sights.
I see the the rear sights of the .72 are canted, this can leads to a different vertical point of impact for each barrel. Please, remember this when shooting. I hade this problem with my Kodiak.
I think that a little canting on back sight can be used to correct vertical POI. JMHO--

Enjoy your rifles and post your experiences.
Thanks
Martin

Your posts were my inspiration to purchase a black powder double.
Kindest Regards
