I have been looking at these Nepalese Gahendra Martini-Henry Rifles at the link below;
http://www.ima-usa.com/nepalese-gahendra-martini-henry-rifle-577-450-untouched.html
It looks like an interesting gun, and something that would be fun to mess around with. Does anyone has any experience with these? The listing says they have been in storage for over a hundred years literally untouched. Is this something that I could reasonably clean up and get in working order, or is it just a collector to hang on the wall? I am not afraid of a project gun, but I don't want to ruin something with collector value. Any opinions or ideas?
