Not sure if there are others out there with a complete set of Model 1868's??
Thanks to Al Frasca for my 1869 dated rifle, Fred Gaarde for my 1868 dated rifle and who's name I do not recall for my 1870 dated rifle.
Here they are!!

That isn’t going to be easy. It took me 4 decades to find just one.
Now Carl is its proud owner!

Fortunately the pursuit is half the fun!

At Least half the fun.
I found and bought 5 of them and then sold off 3 of them because the hunt was over then for me.
Looking for and Finding them was the most fun!
Of course finally Owning one is Great! 😊
But I’ll keep only one and sell the other to allow another “searcher” to enjoy having one.
