I HAD to buy two more bp guns this last week... I don't shoot the ones I have much as it is and the last time I added to the herd was a few years back when I grabbed a like new/new t/c .50 renegade for 180.00 I LOVE my first one and it could happily do whatver I need a caplock to dobut thought a spare would be good if I lost or hurt or wore the first out
but I saw a guy sellin a t/c hawken in .50 this week for 125 a few towns away... talked him into shippin and for 140 I have it en route.... if its hlfway clean I am in good shape I think... been wantin to replace the first one I owned but let go forty years back....
Then I saw a guy offer a "uberti" in a trade toward a modern revolver to another guy.. the guy passed so I messaged him and talked a bit. I seem to have an uberti 1858 in .36 headin here as soon as the m.o gets there and he can ship...
seems like I will be bringin the ole smokepoles out to play at the range again ... I hate the wait but sometimes the deal dictates that - and the excitement of not really knowing how good or bad they actually are is fun too
