Just finished reading a new book about John Moses from the library, very interesting, I am of the opinion his first was the best.  We likely would have lost WWII with out some of his later ones, esp Ma Duece in the air, but he took the single shot to the highest level.   Mine is a small frame Low-Wall, rebarreled with a Springfield Armory 22 target barrel that has had a Hornet Reamer run up it.  Has Pre War style Weaver 1 inch dovetail rings, no big ugly but useful knobs, I'm told very rare, most were 3/4 or 7/8 inch.  That allows me to mount a El Paso made steel Weaver K'12 with adjustable parallax K-12.  The rest is stock, an original barrel would restore it, original plan was a new barrel or rebore to 38-40, a good original barrel and sights would restore it, but why?   Kind of like a barn find 32 coupe with a full Merc in it, a piece of history.  Will shoot slightly over 1 moa but plenty good for an old Hornet.

But did they put it in a Remington New Model Army or Colt Open Top?

I still want to get a 38-55 for elk hunting, just for the giggles of it.  That’s where my thought started.

I have a 1893 Marlin in .38-55. I have shot it in some GAF musters.

(Shows what I know, I thought "they" (offended 1st nation persons and tree huggers) "pissed a bit*h" and got that Crazy Horse monument stopped, stalled or filibustered.)
