    Grandpa stories

    I had the privilege of working with both granddads. Both nice guys, one a business owner [several businesses] and the other a hard-scabble farmer. Grandpa Norlund hardly ever cursed or used foul language. However, when he did, we kids all knew to head for high ground. He only cursed when...

    What is it?

    I think it is hilarious! Just determine, in your mind, the steps necessary to load, shoot and reload, I'll stick to a normal sidelock muzzleloader. Good grief, what a monstrosity, Nice collector item, however.

    This 1860 Army followed me home.

    I owned original SXS shotguns until I moved to Mexico for six years. Sold 'em .. big mistake. Shoot them? You bet, quail. pheasant, duck, grouse, dove and rabbit. Frequently outperformed my Browning over-under toting friends. Dale
