At GAF muster this weekend, someone (Sgt. Drydock?) was telling me that somebody (Taylor's?) currently had a very good special/sale price on the Spencer carbine in .56-50 .... I'm a bit foggy on the details, especially after two straight days of driving, but when I went on Taylor's website today I didn't see any special price offered. Did I miss the sale, or misunderstand? (I've sent an e-mail to Taylor's, but thougt it might pay off to enquire here, also.)
After playing a wee bit with Drydock's Spencer at Muster, I'd kinda like to get one ...
I prefer guns with a Canadian connection ... Canada acquired a quantity of Spencer rifles and carbines in .56-50 in about 1866 to meet the Fenian threat, until sufficient quantities of Snider-Enfields were received from Britain, so it would be an ideal addition to my arsenal, I'm thinking ...
