Went back to my favorite gun shop. Asked about the 1890’s again… owner brought out this 1919 mfg rifle. It’s in pretty nice shape. Bore is good with some light frosting. We were able to agree on a price and is now on its way to new home. After I paid for this rifle, I asked to see the other that was still upstairs… he said maybe “next time”.

Nice. Unless I’m confused he’s still holding out on you. Any hints?

He’s still got one more… he’s playing coy… I’m going back on Friday with a wad of cash…

Concur. I haven’t seen one in that condition for a while, down here. In recent years, mostly tub toy grade.
