Since many gun shows have been cancelled, I thought it would be fun to create a virtual gun show. Please feel free to add images of rifles that would be of interest on this forum. To kick things off, Dan has sent me images of his left-handed Hoffman.

Did Hoffman do the left hand conversion or did they build that rifle around a converted action sourced from another?

Hoffman did make the LH conversions and I believe others may have also used this patented conversion. This particular rifle was the last one numbered in Cleveland as #226 was marked Ardmore, OK.

I see the TG photo isn't very clear so I have sent Fred a couple better ones to post.

The Wright-stocked rifle I got recently and whose catalog photos were posted here has no Hoffman markings but does have identical front sight and barrel-mounted sling base. No doubt Wright had access to some Hoffman fittings. Both have Kornbrath engraving. It would be helpful to know how Wright's Hoffman work transitioned into his work on his own.

How can I insert a photo directly rather than posting a link to an outside photo hosting site?

The easy answer is you cannot. This is a fairly primitive and outdated website that does not host photos directly, but relies entirely on third party sites.
