So much wrong with this rifle. And it’s not even a .44-40! Not an octagon barrel. Just the usual auction craziness?

Wow, Steve, where do you start? I bet they even used a rusty hacksaw blade when they cut the barrel off. I’ve got a canoe paddle around here with better wood. I have no idea what they were thinking. Reckon the bar opened a few hours before the bidding started? Been there, done that.
