    Nice to see the old girls are still to there. I fondly remember some friendly banter at a black powder shoot between myself and Robbie Tiffen at the bandleaders one sunday morning black powder competition they had on, he had some fangled reproduction of some really unusual almost like a ferguson breach musket, i had my old NZ Marked Artillery Carbine, we paid each other out no end, i finally went in a comp shoot against him and won, I immediately retired that rifle as the undisputed champ, i was even paper patching the projectiles to get some purchase on the rifling, GREAT rifles to shoot, i must get some new brass for the old girl and get her back out to the range.

    owww whilst reminiscing and just to prove that some people should never be allowed near them, i had one bloke come up to me, his eyes were big, "wow, look at that calibre, and look how well it shoots, you should really get a scope on that thing!" !!!!
