I grabbed the image from a museum web site a long time ago and can't find the info I saved with it. At the time, I remember thinking that the info was credible, but I can't really back it up. Sorry.George said:Where's that from, Claude? Any info on the gun, etc.?

but I DO like the makers wood/metal fit!!!! :surrender:
nice BIGbore rifle.
I've glanced over the rules and it appears that this is only partially true. The general guide lines state that the sight is as allowed by the match. There are matches for traditional hunting rifles where only open sights are used; however there are also matches for traditional target rifles, schuetzen matches and open matches, all of which could allow other sights. The blackpowder club at my range allows any sight at our monthly shoots, which would be under the rules of the open match.Many Klatch said:...If it shows up at an NMLRA shoot it would be disqualified because it is not an open rear sight...
