These came in this evening. One was hopefully a very rare original but with some more online research It looks to be a very neat copy build. Not a factory deal as the original only has 1020 copies out there. I’ll have to look closer when I have more time but if nothing else, I have a cool pair of .58 carbines to play with.
I have no idea, if I have always enjoyed shorter versions of longer guns. As my Church oft said, ‘punk and disrespectful’!
Anyways, I’m headed up north for a. It’s hunting trip this weekend so hopefully I’ll have a chance to tear into the pair next week and if I get a chance, cast up sone Minie bullets from a mold loaned to my be Jared and get them shooting soon!
