Here's a few I've posted before..

My very first Sharps, Shiloh 1874 #3 Sporter 45/110.. a special gift from several Camp Fire butt wipes I know. grin Still don't understand how I was this deserving but I'll always be grateful to ET,Jorge and Gunner for their kindness.It's almost illegal to have this much fun..
Can't forget my ground school mentors ET and Sharpsguy..Jim and Bill over the many months of waiting for my gun no doubt saved me much grief and wasted energies..thanks fellas!
