    Shooting an original

    I've been shooting a orignnal Remington New Model Army since 2004. I've had some success at International level with it and although it doesn't necessarily shoot straight (very high and left at 25m) it can be very accurate. I had no problem with the local force adding it to my licence, in fact it was a case of writing it in and telling them I'd done it. I've found I enjoy shooting originals -in spite of having my original flintlock blow up in someone else's hand! Fortunately, no damage was done except to the gun which was instantly convetred into a pile of bits. Thank God for insurance!

    Who makes an Adams replica? I'd be quite interested in one of those. One of my patients offered me an Adams that that looked absolutely brand new. I don't think it had ever been fired. His great great uncle took it to the Australian gold fields in the 1860s. I would have loved it but he wanted £2000 which was too much for me.
