It's the only reason i'm hunting with an inline now. I need a scope, and i'll only put one on an inline.
Lots of people shooting a sidelock in the mid 1800's didn't think that way when the Malcolm tube scope came out. I bet many wished they had one on their sidelock. Now days of course if we are going to scope a sidelock only the malcolm tube scope would be acceptable for some I guess.
after all, it's period correct. Right??
