Speaking of 1899Hs. I was at a little gun show in Beckeley, WV with a forum member here about 4 years ago and came across a really nice 1899H TD in 25-35. All original with zero modifications. Also had a Marbles peep sight. Granted, the member I was with was a lot more of a Winchester guy. I let the gun down, and came back later in the day to buy it for $800,..... and it was gone. There is another different forum member here (Savage) that reminds me of that egregious error on a monthly basis! Lol
