T/C Firestorm 209 Caplock

I have seen a few places that are discounting this rifle and was wondering if there was any reason for the price drop or why TC discontinued it.  Is this rifle worth considering?

Snicker,
Welcome to Greybeard,
May you have a great time chating with the other shooters.  Welcome to the chat room.

Now for your answer  -  it's no good cause it's an in-line, try a side lock -

Thanks for the welcome crow-feather.  I have been reviewing these chat rooms for some time just didn't have much to say I guess.

I didn't think about the snail on this gun, thanks propredator.  I'll bet it is rather hard to clean.  I called TC on this gun and they said they dropped it to concentrate more on their in-lines.

Snicker,

I believe that I was thinking of a different rifle, I must pologize.  If you have a thought, an opinion, or just want clarification, please write.  People might disagree, might misunderstand, but it does make for some humerous and lively discussions.

Have a good time,

Snicker,
After such a great write up by an independant tester, I'm suprised that it didn't do so well - maybe with a wood stock -
