Very good guns. They still make them under the cabelas blue ridge name. They used to call them USA made guns but then they got busted removing the italian markings on the barrel after some time lol. With the GM barrel, that should be the earlier hatfield.

Darn you Semi. Now you have me wanting to take a trip to Fort Chambers muzzleloading shop and grab me a custom .54 flinter round ball shooter. He has one there for only $1100. Gulp...that even hurt to type.

Jon...
Do you have any proof of that? If so, please enlighten us with links to your investigative research.
BTW... I have a Cabela's Blue Ridge rifle (by Pedersoli) and it's not a patch off some of the Hatfields that I've seen and handled.

Jon is right Blackpowdersmoke. The later Hatfield company did have guns made by Pedersoli and got caught removing the Pedersoli name from them.
I pulled the barrel to check the underside and, as it turns out, it is a Pedersoli made gun. Here's what I found.


Now that doesn't bother me at all. I have a very nice Pedersoli with beautiful wood, a pristine bore and a great sparking lock. I expect it to shoot quite well.
