A New Hammer!
« on: March 21, 2019, 07:20:33 PM »
Got this in from Tom Watson today. Is .54 caliber with 32" Sharon barrel. Haven't shot it yet but if the Good Lord lets me live through tomorrow I'll check it out! Been wanting a flinter in .54 for a while now!

Very nice! I really like the iron furniture , gives it a serious shooter look

I'm  not  H/C or P/C or even a particularly  good shot but I have a hell of a good time!

Yep, that's me too!
That may be the very reason the Iron Mounted Southern Po-boy Rifle has such an appeal to me, it "looks" serious.

This Tom Watson fella sure knows how to make a nice rifle.

It's the many things we don't do that totally sets us apart.
