Can you show the end flap of the box?

I have never seen this vintage No 1 45-70 with a 26" barrel...Just the Lyman commemorative.

Wondering if it is a re-barrel?

No it is not a rebarrel. Ruger model 11365
It is a Lipsey's special run. The barrel is a C weight. Ruger made around 250 of these rifles for Lipsey's.

Wonderful - thanks for the education.

Took me a minute to get the box.

This rifle should be sold!

If I had the smallest hole to fit it in, I would have bought it yesterday once I knew it was a Lipsey's.

@Bullthrower338 I bet you don't have one of these!!

Now that you are well established in rural Missouri, you need one for the gunrack in your truck. Why do you think Missouri is called the "Show me" state????

I would need arms like Wilt Chamberlain to use the traditional truck rack...it is a LOOONG way back to the window on a MegaCab!

Maybe one that holds a rifle on the top of the dash? Good use for the Ruger American.

That or I get a Hillbilly special regular cab!

 

[tarbe]

Sorry for the hijack...at least you are getting bumped to the top!

 

[Bandera]

No problem at all.
