Default New Rifle Showed Up Today

My new TVM rifle showed up today. Now I need to get out on the front porch and do some shooting. I am going to be asking a few questons about which files to use on the sights. So give me a break.

Overall I think it looks pretty good. Only time will tell when it starts paying for itself in venison!!

I know it is tough to take pictures of a rifle that is so long. But it does not feel long when I shoulder the rifle. It actually feels pretty light and handy. I was aiming at things out the window and the rifle was rock steady. I don't know if that is because of the swamped barrel or not. But it feels extremely comfortable. Tom.

50 caliber Early Lancaster with no patch box. I do not like the patch boxes. Tom.

It's a beauty HEAD. I agree with you on the patch box.

From the looks of it and the what you wrote as your first impressions, it has already paid for itself.

Who, pray tell, let you lay your heirloom rifle on their heirloom quilt?
