I don't know how well a checkered pistol grip rifle would go in and out of a scabbard for packing horseback. Likely why saddle rifles have straight stocks.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

...my dealer says don't give up on the high wall, he is working with Taylors on it. I will hang tough for awhile yet.

The pistol grip won't work for me, just not meant for a scabbard.

Re: Guess what I just ordered...
He was told it was but everything in Italy was screwed up due to the flu, orders messed up, stuff not shipped, etc. Taylors had major disruptions as well, and now of course there is a gun buying frenzy so everything they get there is a demand for right away. There are 5 of them in 45 Colt in 1 shipment that was supposed to ship from Uberti before the end of June. 1 is mine. Uberti is closed for the month of July every year. It's been a journey for sure, but I will wait. One day it will show up. Like I said, I have not spent a penny yet. Told the guy when it shows up, I have the cash ready to go.
