Just pondering.................
« on: August 22, 2010, 06:15:52 PM »
You know, if we could talk H&R into producing a 40 cal Handi, I think I would be buying about 500 of these:



.40-70 Sharps Straight, 2-1/2" for Shiloh.

Maybe I'm just getting tired of stubbing.............I don't know ::) ::)

Why be difficult, when with a little extra effort you can be impossible?
