Been a member here for 15 yrs. but mostly just look, and rarely post. I'm pretty much only a single shot collector, and almost exclusively Ballard rifles, Rolling Blocks, and Hepburn rifles. I do have one Sharps, and original sold to Gove in Denver, Co. in Feb. 1880 and reworked by Freund. It's a .50-140 chamber, and weighs 16 lbs.
