    Ah, sorry, it's not. Not correct for a Long Branch rifle, and I just deleted the 5 or 6 lines which explained why. Nice try on someone's part, but I'll let them learn their tricks elsewhere.

    Doesn't look like a H&H cheekrest to me, looks like a C. Moon & Co. copy. The front profile of the originals was much more carefully shaped and complex.

    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Much changes, much remains the same.
