M1879 Remington Lee without magazine.

We could sure use a good photo heavy op here...would be good for future reference...

Not to rob from any photo efforts from Ridolpho, which would surely be welcomed, but here's a link to an old thread of mine with a large number of somewhat useful photos:


1879 Remington Lee Photos, etc. (Warning! LOTS of big photos)



Let's see if I can paste an old image from another thread here:

Excellent! Because all of my 1879 photos are otherwise locked away in the P'bucket fiasco or are on a long lost memory card..
Note that the 1885 type magazines (at the bottom) are rather longer to accommodate the 500gr loads, so no joy getting them to work in an 1879.
