A pair of first Gen PH rifles inbound……

A 1858 two-bander and a somewhat rare Volunteer two-bander with Rigby rifling. Will post up some pictures when they show up.

 

[Ben Lamb]

Yes please! Good choices.

Arrived

Finally open, had to use the water powered screwdriver.

 

[ismith]

Here they are!

 

[Sheltowee]

Here they are!

Those things are beautiful. Well done.

I’d be hunting with a Volunteer or Whitworth if CO didn’t have their arcane .50 caliber limit for muzzleloaders.

Gorgeous.

I convinced myself I needed a .58 last year, but I haven't "Pulled the trigger" yet.

A lot to love about the .58 and even the .451 match rifles when compared to the .50 and .54 caliber rifles shooting round balls.
