hello all, im Patrick AKA Judge, i have just recently discovered the world of Single Shot Rifles and i am hooked! Marlin Ballards are what i have as of now but i just keep finding and buying more. currently i have 2 #5 Pacifics and a #4 1/2 A1. Marlinman has been beyond fantastic in guiding me. as i grow my collection im sure i will have many questions. i have 3 more rifles that i have on hold at my local Pawn Broker, a 6 1/2 ballard and a #9 Union Hill model, as well as a Remington Hepburn. they also have a Frank Wesson double trigger with a low 3 digit serial number that i may or may not look into, priced well i believe 500.00. sorry i did not keep that short.  i look forward to being a part of this great group.

I really enjoy shooting my Frank Wesson 2 trigger convertible. It might be worth your time to discover what cartridge it is in.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Glad you found the ASSRA and joined! You'll find even more help than what I've been able to assist you with here.

Welcome 
I’ve been an ASSRA member since 1985, my only regret is that I didn’t buy a life membership. 40 years an annual member. We are a diverse group, personally I love and shoot German schuetzen rifles.
Mike
