	It looks like a standard take down schuetzen until you see its a 30/40. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	Joel, that is a beautiful high wall. I've seen that rifle somewhere but can't quite recall. Dale.

	Wow! That one makes my plain Jane, flat-spring 30-40 'wall look like, well... a plain Jane! You really need to get a letter for that one.

	I got it in a trade from Jim Goergen many years ago. It may have been pictured in one of his sale catalogs. I have always been more of a fan of the High Wall "Special Single Shot" and "Special Sporting" rifles than the schuetzens, but I couldn't resist one in this caliber.

	My favorite is the Winchester Helm Pattern Schuetzen. My special sporting 32-40 is okay for offhand. Not near as good as the helm for fit. Nice rifle by the way! I want it bad! Joe.

	Gorgeous rifle, and I love that style of High Wall, regardless of caliber! The .30-40 just makes it more interesting!

	Joel, Your rifle is also displayed earlier in this forum. Perhaps that's where it was seen before. It's beautiful! Does it have a curved lower tang?

	So, what do you shoot in it? Or is it too pretty?

	Looks like a LeRoy Merz photo. On second thought, it is kinda bizzaro with that weird shaped stock and lever. 30-40 isn't one of your classic Schuetzen calibers. Send it to me, I'll take care of it. Might even shoot it in a match. I have some brass and a Pope mold. I don't mind the inconvenience. Joe.

	Your rifle wasn't bizarre a hundred years ago;

	I can't read it, Bob, dang! Never seen that ad before. Do you have a better image? More resolution? The rifle, the bizzaro rifle looks like a Otto Bremer to me. Joe.

	The stock looks a bit like this one. Especially the grip cap. Frank

	That's a very period design on your grip cap Frank! I've seen it numerous times on old single shot rifles, plus some lever actions. My 1881 Marlin Flues rifle has the same pattern horn cap.

	Is that a take-down-1/4 turn block that the barrel is installed in ?
