Because I apparently want to undergo orthopedic surgery for a broken wrist, I've been seriously lusting after a 45gvt derringer lately.

Yeah I have seen people shoot those .45-70's and lets just say they only shoot it once lol I'll stick to those new fangled Winchester PDX1 410 rounds.

Couple scary black rifles:

^^^^^ Niiiiiiice

:arated: Those are great! That would be something that would have been used by buffalo hunters. It is amazing that in 1874 Billy Dixon took a shot at a mounted Kiowa warrior, knocking him off of his horse at a distance that was later confirmed by a surveyor to be 1538 yards, or a full nine-tenths of a mile! I am sure the Indians were fairly surprised at the power and accuracy of the white man’s rifle but this guy was one heck of a shot.
Is that a Cimarron Sharps named after Billy?

Here are a couple of my rifles. ;)

Rock River Arms LAR-15 .223 Rem. / Bushmaster heavy barrel with AK-74 type muzzle brake.

Arsenal SLR-95 7.62x39 Nice forged receiver.

Just an observation of how frequently versions of these two rifles are owned by enthusiasts, including myself (Mine: AR15/M16A1 'parts gun' -NODAK spud receiver to replicate the 2nd model 'Nam, and the ugly Rumanian AK with replacement stock set).
