    Beautiful old rifle, jmoore.

    If friend Patrick is right, you only need 3 more to have the set. And a completely-original Chassepot, of course.

    And I thought Lee-Enfields were a problem. At least you can FIND Lee-Enfields!

    I have run into both the Gras and the Chassepot converted into Shotguns with a big plate on the front of the Bolt and a (very) modified Extractor.

    Original rifles are REALLY hard to find here.

    Very nice..... and thanks for the pics.
