I've thought about buying one of the functioning repros.
Given the price difference between an Italian copy and even a rusty paperweight of an original, the copy makes a lot of sense if all you want to do is shoot one.
(This goes for wheellock pistols and folding-trigger Colt-Pattersons, too...)
Had me going there for a minute Robert... :-)
ReplyDeleteA non-firing Lemat could indeed be progress.
ReplyDeleteNon firing, what is with that? might as well have a plastic model of a Kentucky Rifle over the simulated fireplace in digital mode.
ReplyDeleteNon firing? WTF is it good for?
ReplyDeleteYou should warn us before you get our hopes up like that....
