Mine shoots, but doesn't look as nice.

On another track, the first picture, the chair the rifle
is on. Is there a button on the arm to adjust the back?
It looks like a chair that was made in Grand Rapids
many years ago. I had one like it, and it had a slide
out foot rest. I miss that chair, it was comfortable.
My dobie likes the love seat we have now, tho!
Thank you, receiver is somewhere in late 1918 range, and I've taken it out twice now and I am very pleased
As for the chair, I built it to Stickley specs and it has removable pegs on chair arms which can be moved back or forward to recline. No lazy boy foot pop out but I did make a matching ottoman that, if I'm lucky my dog will let me use.
Cheers
