I have always wanted a single shot in 45/70 since watching Quigley down under. A buddy has a 1885 BPCR in 45/70 I like the look of that gun with the octagon to smooth barrel. This would be more of a fun range toy than a dedicated hunting rifle. Anyone have experience with this rifle and how it compares to the standard 1885?
If you want to be "Quigley" you need an 1874 sharps. As far as the difference between Browning 1885 replicas, one is that early ones were made without a receiver tang on which to mount a sight
