Ballards may be weaker,

Who but we can understand the feeling's we have for these old Rifle's ???  My Wife say's that when I pass, she will have my remains loaded into a few of my old favorites and send me off in style !!!  Can't hardly wait !!!    Grin


That's so true! Even many of my gun friends don't understand my addiction to old single shot rifles. They may love old guns, but can't understand why anyone would want a gun that only holds one cartridge, and looks funny.

And I can't understand how someone can look at a fine old Ballard or a Cody Ballard and not think it is a beautiful rifle!

I always have a Ballard or Double Rifle in my lap or resting on the sofa next to me when watching tv.  Better than what's on the tube. Will get up at commercials and dry fire.  I know, I have this illness....but no excuses and no regrets!  Wink
