    Someone rebarreled the action and left it heavy straight bull barrel profile

    But they made the action up from various parts from other 1885s
    They made some mistakes and it would cock with the lever but nit manually from half cock.
    So I swapped a few bits around from my 1885 parts bin and got it going properly.

    These are the first shots I've taken with it.
    And I need too find or make a stock set for it because the butt is from my 22 WMR 1885
