There’s one that’s just the most incredible, one of the rarest guns you could ever find. It is a Browning Brothers high wall that the Browning Brothers made in Utah before they sold the patent rights to Winchester to make the model 1885 Winchester. It is a heavy barrel, with double set triggers, and with a cleaning rod under the barrel. Chambered in 40-70 Sharps Straight, I have already ordered brass and dies to get this gun shooting very soon… Montana seems to me to be what a small boy would think Texas is, listening to Texans..John Steinbeck
