Not mine, but if I had any cash I'd be in the chase(and you can please believe you wouldn't see a heads up until after the auction, see, I know you guys pretty well :wink: ) A refinish that's not way over priced. A pretty good refinish at that, not Turnbull quality, but still pretty nice. The wood looks sanded but not too bad. I'd ask for the better (lighter, why have dark pictures when you want to show color case) pictures, but still has potential to be a sweet shooter.

Not bad, but he won't accept a CA C&R. What is up with that? :?

A carbine with a "For Black Powder " barrel should have a blued receiver.

True enough, I guess I didn't notice the "For Black Powder Only" barrel in the description or he changed it after I posted the link, (still has no bids, you can change it if there aren't any on ebay, I don't know about GB). The description doesn't look the same as before, hmm, dunno. The receiver is pretty late for that, isn't it? Still, it should make a good cast bullet shooter at that price.

I would be interested only in a gun with a "Special Smokeless Steel" barrel.
