So, I am weak. A Siamese Mauser followed me home yesterday. It's been converted to .45-70 and the barrel is marked Navy Arms with a NJ address. Various 'net searches didn't provide much beyong Val Foggett's history and adventures (intreresting read though). Did Navy Arms do the complete conversion or simply supply the barrel? There seems to be varied opinions regarding quality where NA is concerned. Anyone have first-hand experience? So far, this one seems just fine.
It's a heavy beast though sporting a 26" barrel. Ought to be interesting.
