Awesome rifle GDub! You bring back a great memory. My father took me to Glen Slades when I was a young boy just to see the Polar Bear. I remember looking up at that bear in awe at how big it was. Seemed like it stood up about 10 feet tall.

That’s pretty good stuff Shrapnel! I think Teddy R really liked the 45-75 quite a lot. Wrote a bit about his rifle in his elk short story book.

That's amazing. I've got an very similar mauser like that from Heym in Germany that was imported into the states as a store chain brand.
