Sharps Borchardt action - 05/02/08
As a fan of single shots, TCR's, Rugers, etc., I've got a question for those who may be in the know? Why is it that with all of the late 19th century rifle actions being reproduced, the Sharps Borchardt action has been bypassed?
Is the Borchardt action so complex the cost would be prohibitive? Is it a case where only single shot loonies (like myself) would be interested... e.g. the market is too small?
Am I correct in believing the Borchardt action (in current steels) would be as capable as the Ruger #1?
Any of the sage writers have any insight?
