Camille,
First, nicetaseeya!
If I thought my replies would generate interest from such an august person, I would write more replies...
I am asking 'cause whenever I go to a SASS meet, it seems like the Model 73s are far and away the most well used rifles ....
And I have had comments, when posting on the Model 92 sight and the Model 66 sight asking why I was posting on 'their' site ...
When one looks a the plethora of other forums, for top Breaks, Colts, Colt Open Tops, Rugers, Model 92s, Model 60s, Model 76s ad nauseum, it would seem that a Model 73 forum might not be that far-fetched.
But then again, I am reminded of an old military instructors words ... 'We have always done it that way before and it has always worked before' .... or 'If the military wanted to have it they would have issued it to you ...'
So I bow to the decision making authority and accept what they offer .... *S*
