This forum can be very picky regarding non-doublegun postings But, IMHO, this one is worthwhile At 102 she still looks and shoots good:  Even though she pulls a bit to the left at 25 yards

Ted Thanks But I admit to using the best possible outdoor lighting conditions. Under indoor lighting, especially fluorescent, the finish still looks good, but not as good as in this photo. Funny how that works out. Sometimes the camera brings out flaws in the finish that you would not otherwise see -- sometimes the camera hides what is otherwise clearly visible. Lou

Have you tried shooting different ammunition in the old girl? I would be more concerned with getting it on the bull than any worries about how the finish has faired after all these years.
It looks quite well for what it is, and far better than most that are similar.
Best,
Ted

Ted All I have is the HSM as I wanted relatively low recoil and a non-jacketed bullet. Note: the sights on this gun are not what anyone would call "target sights." My guess is that with a target having more white I will be able to hold a better zero.

I don't know the exact size of the rings/"oblongs" (Larry may be along & point out they're not true circles). on that target are but I'm guessing the group center is not much, if any, over an inch to the left & that's at 25 yards. What more could one ask for with fixed sights?
I would not want any Good Ol Boy From TN shot. Who knows, he may well have ancestors who rode alongside my Great Grandpa in the Confederate cavalry a'trying to Whup op on them Yankees.
I suppose everyone here is aware the NRA was founded by a couple of retired Union Generals licking their wounds because it had taken a better manned, better armed, better fed, better-equipped army four long bloody years to put down them Rebels, because they had been "Out Fought & Out Shot". This, of course, took place while Useless S Grant was the Prez.
