    It would be a shame to shoot them so keep them away from me because I am a heathen and I have this urge, this overwhelming urge, to see how well they shoot.

    That is incredible. An amazing feat without electric motors and a micro processor.

    Thumbs up

    Impressive especially when you consider the fact that they are fast approaching 200 years of age.

    If they were in 10mm I'd be tempted to bid

    They got hammers and triggers and barrels. They have to shoot or find something else to copy. Aint gonna stand for no false advertising.
