Hello everyone,

I have purchased one of my Bucket list rifles in 45-70 because it’s the Beast Slayer...

it’s a new 1895GBL that I have already added accessories to make it mine lol (A Father’s Day give from my wife and daughter this year Is leather for it.)

looking forward to learning and helping where I can.

Mike

If your AR toting friends ever give you a hard time about your old-fashioned lever gun...don't hesitate to remind them that the .45-70's powder charge, alone, weighs almost as much as their 5.56 projectile. :biggrin:
