If I ever get into that foul, grungy, stinking stuff, that would be the way to go. That's a right nice rifle.

Yup, that's the place.

Mac, if you contact them, tell them where you saw it too.

How about US$2500 for a 12 bore double rifle in 90-95% condition?



It should be perfect for states like Ohio which require use of a shotgun (with slugs) for deer hunting as no game warden could argue that a 12 bore (12 gauge) is not a shotgun. Yet it has all of the attributes of a fine rifle.

If looked at that one before. If I was where I could hold it in my hands I think I would have to bring it home. I will get a BP double with ears one of these days.
