If I were to ever get the urge to launch golf balls into the wild blue yonder and never find them again..... I'd just grab my golf clubs.

So, I guess my bench vise and a pipe wrench is out, right?? Just kidding...... I have no clue.

Ironically, I am awaiting the arrival of a rifle that is a reproduction of historic classic (Sharps model 1874). While there is a serial number visible, it was a custom job and the original manufacturer was/is not known by the seller (I got it from GunBroker). The Gold star seller said that since that was the case, he had to ship it to my FFL. So, be very careful with this.

Snaveba, From the reviews, it sounds like the installation of those double set triggers is not that difficult. Have you ever installed any and is it fairly simple?? thanks

Thanks for the links. I have been looking at Vermeer sights from Montana Vintage Arms, as well.... SIGHTS - Montana Vintage Arms

I just scratched another lever action itch that I have had for some time. It is a reproduction of a Sharps 1874. I would like to add a period accurate tang sight and see if I can replicate the "bucket shot" from Quigley Down Under.... It is chambered in .45-70 so this makes two in this caliber I've added in the last month. If I see another one that I really want I'll just take a cold shower or something.

That's a real beauty. Shame it had been neglected but after the disassembly and lube, I'll bet it moves nicely. Nothing is as satisfying as the cycling of a good lever action that is well oiled.

Probably not a bad idea. The monsters are no larger than before but there are more of them and they are more emboldened since the current judicial system tends to side with them. "Better to be judged by twelve than carried by six....."

I'm impressed with how well Taurus has handled this. Of course, I have always like the Taurus handguns that I have owned, but this is exceptional customer service.

I agree with these comments. I had a .357 Rossi about 25 years ago and it was a great handgun and built like a tank.

It is. Here's info on the relationship: TISAS VS SDS IMPORTS ? | 1911Forum

More than you can "shake a stick at" Seriously, there were scores of them. By the way, this thread was from last years Military/Gun Show in Louisville. I also went to the show this year and it was covered in US 1911's. I bought a Winchester 1886 this year.

I agree with BigK on all of this. Mine will eat almost anything and while I do clean it, on those occasions where I have run high volumes of dirty ammo through it, not a problem.

Answer: NOPE! I sent a link to this thread to some shooting buddies of mine from out of state. I think there's about to be a "run" on this little fella...............

Same here.... Didn't know they existed. Nice review and thank you.
