Re: More BoO&F stuff to ponder

It is amazing 120 years later that in a 12 day period 3 BoOf rifles--- original would be seen and sell within 40 miles of each other. 2 at the auction in Newport and the one I found at Wilmington,Oh. Only 100 made 120 years ago and 3 that close within days

Re: Board of Ordance and Fortifications Rifle ????

It does have a lightening cut between front and rear band, I believe that is not supposed to be ? No signs of any repairs or modifications to front of stock and it fit's like a glove. Wrong ?
