My "NIB" Miroku 1873.
« on: April 26, 2021, 05:57:24 PM »
A full month after I "won" the auction and a full three weeks after it was shipped, I finally picked it up. The Louisiana FFL jacked up the order by sending it to Ohio ("OH") instead of Oklahoma ("OK"). It was re-sent but languished in Akron for four days before it actually started south. My FFL called last Thursday (4/22) to say it was in.  I picked it up on Friday.

Interesting looking wood, don't know I've seen a Miroku like that.  I like it.  How long is the barrel?

I like the look too. Your story if the mix-up would drive me crazy.  I'm not exactly patient waiting for guns that I've ordered...

Congratulations!

Nice looking Trapper. I like the blond wood.
