deerstalker Campfire Outfitter Joined: Apr 2013 Posts: 14,035 North of Bonners Ferry ID.	my oldest is a 1890 model Winchester built in 1906. had a 1873 Winchester 32-20 made in 1882 but let it get away. the 1890 is 22wrf and still shoots 2 " at 100 yards. amazing little rifle. ah! I forgot the 1725 matchlock Japanese. haven't worked up the nerve to shoot it as it is a masterpiece of art.

Almost clipped a couple of students on the sidewalk, but I'm sure they understood my actions.. I think that was a thumbs-up one of them gave me.
