This just seemed a little wierd to me. Gunbroker Auction I am not saying I make sense to anybody else.

Gotta be careful and not click the wrong thing and bid accidentally there!

This qualifies as ugly!

Some of the gun plumbers who sell their goods online really aught not get so creative with those piles of used parts they have lying around.

I rank this one right up there with the Russian Mosin carbine some dude rechambered for 300 WSM - an equally bad idea.

And who in the hell wants a single shot 45/70 bolt rifle anyway? For the price I doubt the rifle holds more than one round at a time. Seems like an awful waste of time to me.

So I think I'll have to let this great deal pass me by...

A needed reminder that liquor and gun parts don't mix.

If you look at the muzzle, it looks like there are 2 holes that are presumably part of the muzzle brake, right along the wood line, and looks like the wood is recessed there for the release of hot gases. I wonder if the finish would get burned over time.

"SORRY, SCOPE & MOUNTS ARE NOT INCLUDED"

thank goodness...

Forrest..........it can't be booz.....its must be drugs, not even a drunk person would come up with anything like that, thats not the all time winner, but its close.

and you get to blue it after you get it home............can't wait

You know, there are rifles smiths, and there are combination plumber/house painters! Guess which one built this thing!

A waste of an old action, and .458 bore barrel, IMHO! Where's the icon for pukeing?

Yes, ugly as sin!

....but what I found is really sad, about the whole deal, is that there have been eight bids on the damn thing!
