Fixed!

Thanks for the explanation Fulton.
The images and what little story we have on the gun so far will hopefully get the attention of our members and stimulate some good conversation on your neat old BlackPowderExpress rifle.

As far as personal debt goes, you owe me nothing mate!
I'm very much glad that you had the mind to get this rife and it's story out on the web for discussion.

I'll repeat that you have a valuable (even if somewhat mildly butchered) piece of the 'good old days' of gunmaking and hunting.
What you'll find here is that there are some very well educated and highly knowledgeable folk who will take great pleasure in walking you through the works, function, care and feeding, and field use of your Holland and Holland double rifle.

If it were mine (and I'd be happy to own it) I'd get it up and running as soon as my schedule and budget would allow.
I'd get it out on a hunt first chance I got. I take great pride in feeding the family with fresh meat taken with 100+ year old guns and rifles.
That's first level recycling at it's best!

Here's a deal.
If you feel so compelled, when it comes time you want to sell that nice old rifle, whatever condition the guts end up being in, let me know and give me a shot at buying it.
I've turned other 'old wrecks' around before, and I'd be thrilled with the opportunity to breathe life back into the one you've shown us this week.
