Ben,
Very nice .577 Henry! So November 29, 1873.......
Gotta love a classic .577 Express. Your hammer profile is a clone of my 1877 vintage .450 double.

I just had Steve Bertram bring back the damascus brown on my .450, it had been rebrowned by some hack somewhere in its past and was as dark as a Hershey bar with no pattern. Now it looks like a well preserved 140 year old period specimen with nice subdued brown and visible pattern.

Guess I need to get with it and post pictures of my 1873 vintage Stephen Grant .577, it is a 3” now but I’m guessing it was originally a 2-1/2” as there is just the faintest visible imperfection at 2-1/2” on my fired brass, that and it weighs only 8lbs 4oz.
Have tried to contact Francis Lovell as well as Atkin, Grant, & Lang to see if there are any of the old Grant records in existance but they don’t return either emails or actual letters. Probably have to phone them.......
- Mike
