Well this site was a waste of time.

Three days and nothing.

I picked this one up at my local gun shop this morning.....I think it's a 1-1/2 but I figured I'd ask to be sure. That and did they chamber it in .22 LR? The reason I ask is because there is some resistance and lead shaving when I push a LR round all the way into the chamber. No issue with .22 short...

I've had a couple #1s over the years in obsolete calibers that I parted with. I still have a Danish RB that was reamed to .45-70 when it was imported and a Rem. Conversion Musket in .58 Berdan/US Musket. I have always liked RBs so finding one in .32-20 was a especially good find for me. Question: Do...

I found this old Remington #1 Sporter in a local shop. I have about $112.00 in it. 24" octagon barrel. .75" across the flats. Marked E. Remington & Sons. Serial # 12233 on the barrel and lower tang. Flat bar extractor. It started life as a .22 but someone rebored it to something in .31...
