A rifle that one of my relatives used in the civil war. I don't know when it was made or who made it I'll put some pics up if I can.

Like coondog, an 1869/71 Swiss Vetterli. Supurb craftsmanship. Made like aSwiss watch. Rescued it from an antique mall. Had no idea what it was, but saw "Waffanfabrik Bern" stamped on it and knew it was Swiss made. Was so dirty you couldn't work the action. Cleaned the old girl up and she looks great.

.22 that my dad gave me. It was his, when he was a kid. The stock was glued when I got it. I then made a laminate stock for it when I was in high school. I now have a 11Yr old and its his to Shoot. Hope he gives it to his son one day.

That actually gets shot? an 1870's dated Martini...originally a Martini Henry, converted in the 1890's to a Martini Enfiled....shoots .303 Brit, a whole lot easier to find, and less expensive, but not nearly as fun or cool as the original .577/.450 round...
Not shot...a 1830 or so era Black Forest made (German) double barrel muzzle loading fowling piece, all engraved, with some fantastic stock carvings..... |
