In the meanwhile, someone on the site makes a nifty little tool that fully seats the cartridge in a jiffy.

This rifle is a modern build by a Gentleman that has the Freund patent. Chambered in 45-100 paper patch only.

I think Frank Freund's patent rights ran out over 100 years ago. There are at least 3 talented gunsmiths making Freund improved Sharps rifles, or making the parts to convert to Freund's improved.

I was wondering how the copyright could be retained this long.  If that was so Colt would still be making CNB revolvers and S&W would be the only cartridge revolver.
