Looks pretty good, what caliber is it in? I have one in 44 special myself.

I, too, have a Uberti 1873 Sporting Rifle, .45 Colt caliber. But mine has a pistol-grip buttstock. This gun is a work of art! Shoots good, too! Just curious....what does rdnzl stand for? jd45

All of FZ's lyrical silliness aside, he was one of our greatest composers.

Cancer took him in his prime.

He had his very own style and that is something to be said in this me to world. There's not been one befor or one since. He takes me back almost 35 years in time.
