hot rod truck Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 Is it a Ferguson rifle? Interesting read and a reference to "Virginia Sal" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Ferguson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted March 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 hmm, seems to be a ferguson rifle design, i just tried the breech loading mechanism and it works pretty smoothly, ill have to research it some more, im not sure what proof marks to look for or anything. Its more than likely that its a replica because there are only 2 original ferguson rifles in reported in the US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
