Nickel 1873 | Page 2 | What's New! | Forum

I suspected something was up with this one.  Specifically, the side plate looked off to me, but I attributed it to the photographs as Henry Mero usually has such nice stuff.  I’m glad others pointed it out as well.

Now that the cat is out of the bag, everyone has an opinion, but I don’t particularly find this rifle very attractive with the nickel trim.  It appears a bit gawdy to me, and it seems odd, as others have said, that nickel components are those that are easily replaceable.

If I owned this rifle, I would move it along.  There are more attractive rifles out there.

Now, my opinion might not be the general consensus.

YMMV.
