It was great shooting with you yesterday Kevin as it was with Rick and John. The weather was perfect, the lunch was good. And yeah, those 136 year old hammer guns in my case are just a blast to shoot. Although my left thumb is twice the size of ny right after cocking the hammers 250+ times. 1889 grade 2 with 32" beautiful damascus tubes.
