Mike, nice to know you were at the Amber Auction also. I managed to purchase .45 X 27/8" Borchardt there. It has been a fine shooter over the years. It is however a bear to shoot with 1000yd
loads. I was able though to get on target at 1000 using a Midrange Sharps tang sight. Regards, FITZ.
Amazing how many folks I have run across that were there. I had tunnel vision at the time and was there for a couple of Niedner's guns, his underhammer rifle and a cased flintlock pistol. I also bid on and won some SS rifles for the folks who bought my plane ticket to Massachusetts. It was a great five days, at the time we all thought we paid a lot for what we got, in hindsight it was nothing like that at all.
PS: What was the lot number of your Sharps?
