what gun you getting? if you don't mind me asking.DH just ordered a new gun for me and or course when it comes in and I get it I will need to zero it in.
I had to look that up. Beautiful rifle. If I recall they were very popular about 100 years ago when the Swiss were upgrading and the rifles were surplus. It must be hard to find one in good shape now. Please keep us up to date.what gun you getting? if you don't mind me asking.
i just got a swiss 1896/11 now got to find ammo for it lol.
He told me but I don't remember. I'll have to ask him again. I can't remember what I did two minutes ago. I do remember that he used to have a Swiss but I don't remember the model. He had a hard time finding ammo for it so he did find the shells and made his own ammo. We are old folks and he doesn't do it anymore so he gave most of his guns away and all of his ammo equipment. It might be the same one. It had a sight that could be elevated because it could shoot a very long distance.what gun you getting? if you don't mind me asking.

I don't remember the exact model but it is a 410 Henry. Apparently it is hard to come by but the gun dealer found one in I believe Kentucky and is having it shipped to his gun shop. Just waiting for a call that it has come in.what gun you getting? if you don't mind me asking.

Looks like a fun gun. Should take care of any predators short of a bear. Low recoil and a wide range of ammo, bird shot to slugsI don't remember the exact model but it is a 410 Henry.

was told of a women who used a .410 for moose hunting. not that am recommending that, but thought it was something of interest to mention .Looks like a fun gun. Should take care of any predators short of a bear. Low recoil and a wide range of ammo, bird shot to slugs
thanks, doing a bit of research on mine. turns out it was made in 1899 (same year one my great grandmother was born) and is P stamped (was bought by a solider) which from research might lower its collector value to some.I had to look that up.
