Default Newest Aquisition.

Well I bought a new gun. new for me anyway. I don't know a whole lot about it but i trust the forum member that I purchased it from. I can hardly wait to get it this coming week and give it a test run. It is a custom made 50 cal. 1:48 with an H&R lock ( I think). It looked beautiful in the photos. I wll give a report once I get it. I will try to attach the photos that he sent me .

That's a dandy Chetmarks. Beautiful wood. Can't wait for the range report.

I really liked the wood grain, that's the main reasonI bought it. Not a very good reason I guess but any reason works for me

Don't feel bad. I find it very easy to come up with a reason to buy a gun - like "it's getting cloudy, I think I should buy that gun".

That is a very nice southern mountain rifle. If it shoots half as good as it looks you have a winner.

I'm not at all knowledgeable on historical styles Mr. Flintlock, but was of the impression that southern mountain rifles were full stocks. Does the term also apply to half stocks?
