    I've got some top hat caps now so I might have to try my Whitworth (1863) on the local goats, but given the steepness of the hills and the value of the rifle it won't be a regular thing!

    Good photos are needed! Generally old shotguns are worth bugger all unless they are in very good condition or by a top-end maker. Sadly, most old shotguns in NZ have had a hard life from uncaring...
