      Yes Dick, it was too good to be true!! With that being said since it is a good looking rifle and not way overpriced it seems that this rifle is growing on me LOL!!!
      Think I will just hold onto it for a while and just refer to it as a BASTARD 84
      Would be nice to see pictures of your project rifle Dick when it?s completed.

          I'll have to take some pics - I'm not very far along. As noted, it will be a "5-footer". Not attempting to replicate the friction breech, or the special M1879 Buckhorn sight, just the over-all length and general appearance. I may even cheat a bit on the latch and spring, and doubt that I will be able to achieve perfect alignment at the two hand-filed triangular holes, but I have a 'beater' 1880 rod to gauge by so as not to scratch up the rare one. I have a sorta close receiver (191xxx vs. the correct 1974xx) but am always open to TRADING for a closer one, if anyone can help.
