An english gundealer send me these photos of an attic find near London.

Lancaster rifles with oval bore above .450cal are rare. Here is a real piece untouched from the victorian era. Maybe the last shot from this rifle was fired in the 1880s-1890s. I am a big sucker for this "junk". It creates walletdamages...

Makes me bitter and unhappy just looking at it.

I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.
