Did anyone see this one on gunbroker? It is a unique looking gun that I guess is an original action and barrel with new Shiloh wood. I would love to have one built like it

Gemmer Sharps

Bit of a mongrel, that.

The Gemmer was a HUNTING rifle, and the mods Gemmer offered for the '74 intended specifically for that task.

I don't think he'd be to tickled at what's happened to his work.

No flame on the good folks in Big Timber,...they build what folks want.

That thing looks like a grizzled old Hivernan jumped in bed with a fancy London Heiress, and the result's a strange kid.

Conversion. Thick lock plate and the screw at bottom of rt. side lock plate is the screw that plugs the old pellet reservoir. Bridgeport barrel and cartouche. Lawrence rear sight. Gemmer style.

Been shagging Teresa Hienz Kerry. While that idiot husband of hers is off screwing everything up, I've been scr*win' her.

Somewhere off in the distance, one hears Tony Bennet singin', "Just a Gigolo", in a piano bar,...out in the parking lot, neon light glistens off the tail fins of real American cars,....
