I wish my 1894c had the curved pistol grip and not the straight one  _________________ British Army 1997 - 2003

I have not even taken the .45-70 out for target practice yet. When it starts cooling off and getting closer to hunting season I will see what it can do.
Weihrauchpower, ever since I have seen those XLRs I have thought about wanting one. I really like the stainless and grey together. I think its a very pretty rifle. _________________ JOEY

Pro - The fit & finish are very good. The cost is very reasonable. Service & turn around time was very fast. Nice & professional man to deal with.
Con - No protection like other models on the martket that have "wings" to protect the sight.

I keep the factory rear sight on and simple fold it down. That way I do have a back-up. |

Billy the Kid huh ?! I see you're into SASS. Thought about joining, even came up with an alias, but cannot hook up with a club here in PA.
Here's my brace of six shooters...

Well my first shoot will be in two weeks. I dont have a scatter gun yet. Im going to use a friends.
I plan to use this 66 Winchester clone which is in .45 colt also.
I love the civil war guns so I may use some of the 1851 conversions down the road.
This is my 1892 Winchester in .357/.38.
Here is my 1892 in .45 Colt.

Here is how it shoots.
