Old IN-Line?
« on: September 13, 2006, 03:31:35 AM »
Back in the early 70's, a friend of mine had a rifle that I can only describe as an inline..
Strange thing about it was that it used a roll of caps as its primers. I know there was the old Maynard Tape rifles in the Civil war, but this was a recently produced gun. It looked similar to a modern sporting rifle also. I think it was made by Mountain arms or rocky mountain arms
or something like that. Anybody know anything about them?
It was Accurate, I do remember that!

Rocky Mountain Arms, they used a rotating breech and Greenie stickum caps, 22 caliber and could use black or a pinch of Bullseye. There was supposed to be 36 and 44 cal versions, but I never saw any. Have a 22 somewhere around here for when I get old enought to fiddle with it.

This one was .44 caliber. And yes, it had a strange Breech system.
Could you post a couple of pics of the Breech on yours?
