Cant keep 'em all forever anyway, and he who dies with the most toys still does not win.

Other than the cannon those are all H&R's because Im usually on the H&R Forums, Im afraid its not a Cape Gun combination dbl.; it is a custom stub HB 25-35 swap barrel setup.
BTW, it shoots lead or jacketed very well, the 87s typical of the 25-20 and heavier bullets too, which the std twist 25-20 wont stabilize.
For some reason my more expensive and 'collectable' guns seem to be going away and Im still having fun.
