Pedersoli Sharpsrifle or Armisports Sharpsrifle

I wonder if anybody here know about Armisports sharpsrifle compared to Pedersolis sharpsrifle. I want to know if Pedersolis sharpsrifle is better than Armisports sharpsrifle. If itï¿½s any difference betwen the two in steelcauality and that pressure they have been tested with.

I have an Pedersoli sharpsrifle in caliber 45/70 and I plan to rechamber that to 45/90, but if the Armisports sharprifle is better maybe I buy a new one in caliber 45/90 instead to rechamber my Pedersoli.

Karl-Erik,
The Pedersoli is generally considered to be vastly better than the Armssport. Not only in fit and finish but in function. The Armsport has a few strange details added. The Pedersoli is closer to an original w/o added gimick like a safety that I believe is on the Armsport.

Hands down your Pedersoli would be a better gun. Many consider it "almost" a Shiloh, and my Shiloh has been beaten many times by a Pedersoli in local matches.
