Gentlemen, Thought I would jump in here. Sometime ago Tjack and myself before my book had been published, noted that there is a phenomena with numerous .43 Egyptian chambered rolling block rifles having late Spanish 3rd contract frames and components which are showing up with the proper side bar ext...

I tell you pardner that RB was getting heavy after doing the entire scene for 12 takes before they got it right! It was 2 o clock in morning in November 2002, and was pretty chilly even in up there at Melody Ranch in Santa Clarita....the rolling block was a real treat to see on screen according to t...

Never thought about bringing this up, but one first Western productions I started acting in (at age 52!!) was HBO's Deadwood in 2003, and was the only actor on set, carrying a Rolling Block, for the 3 or 4 episodes at least. The first of several scenes that comes to mind is in the first episode when...

Glad you brought this up as I almost mentioned it a month or more ago, because it jumped off the screen at me and the minuses/replacements are just as you pointed out. I wrote the seller months ago and asked if the left side had the Sharps style staple etc. and it does not.... nor was never cut for ...

I can assure you he was pleased you sold it to him but take heart as I have the same feeling because the other one shown was once mine and have not found another since...and mine went to Tom in 1998! On the plus side having the pleasure of knowing 99% of those RBs I sold went to Tom or my cousin Jud...

My pleasure Sir!
George

Marlinman, Thank you so much for the compliment! Sorry that I cant accomodate the Sporting end of RB's, but Roy Marcot does it nicely and knows so much more about those than I ever will!
