New Toy
Yep my new toy...Made by William Lawerence in MA from 1852 to 1868. ML Target with period scope .36 caliber, heavy Barrel, double set triggers, German Silver Mountings, excellent condition...30 inch barrel.
Looks like I am winding up where I started off with guns...only now I am buying the real deals....instead of repros...
The difference between the Percussion guns and stalwarts of collecting...Colt and Winchester it is as Art is to Coin Collecting....as described to me by the author of several books on the subject.....meaning each one of these guns unique...one off...
