Long Rage Rifle 45-80-500

Post by FrankD »

I am looking to buy any items / parts regarding Long Range Riles 45-80-500 used at the Creedmoor matches, for example wooden pistol grip, Hotchkiss but plate, barrels, bull sight, long range rifle stock from 1879 (cartouche: [SWP] or [SWP/1879]. Also looking for NRA Creedmoor match related items like medals, programs, and tickets.

If you have anything to sell please let me know.

I have an [SWP] cartouched M1873 stock, which I had planned, before I acquired two legit LRs, to use (non-invasively) as the basis for a representative .45-80 piece. Perhaps it is time to pass the torch to a younger man. Let me give it some thought.

Dick,
I appreciate that you are considering it. If you do decide, the stock will be going to a great home and it will be meticulously cherished and taken care of. It will be displayed along with LLR 114077 and 110671 (showcased in your your recent book). This will be part of my collection. These are items that will be with me for a very long time, to educate others in Trapdoor rifles. Thank you for considering.

Best,
Frank
