Hello all!
I have been bitten by the bug for some of these old black powder cartridge rifles. I will start by saying that I have never shot ANY BP guns and I dont know anyone who does.
I am really thinking about getting one of these Martini Henry rifles or ones of similar design. Can anyone give me some idea what to look out for on these rifles? Any warning signs? Are there similar rifles that would be equally as interesting?
I am kind of jumping in on the deep end and not sure the best way to proceed.
thank you for any help
