Saw a reproduction in a gunshop today, Smith carbine 50 cal. Made by Poltney & Trimble. Beautiful little gun, looked pretty much new. I had never seen one before, $975.00. Any you guys have one, shoot one ?
I have one. I shoot it occasionally. They a great fun. I use the plastic case with a .340 grain bullet. I can manage to hit a 10" gong at a 100 yds. enough to make me smile.
I had an original about 40 years ago. Imo one of the better of all the ACW carbines.
