Next up is the 1860 lever action repeater invented by B Tyler Henry. Same ammo as above, 25 rounds on an 8" target. Off hand standing at 50 yds. Open sights. What a rifle! Expect these to catch on with frontiersmen in coming years!

Great pics, loved it.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
