Marshal TKD, Sass # 36984L Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I have Cimarron 1885 High Wall Deluxe For Sale. Caliber 45-70 Barrel length 32” Pistol grip stock Pedersoli Long Range Sight & Hooded Front sight.($400) Price is $700.00 shipped to your FFL. Now the rest of the story... I bought this rifle a year ago from a “Pard”. He made no representation that the guns previous owner had worked on it. I put about 30 rounds through it and started getting light primer hits. Took it apart to clean it and noticed the tweeking on the springs. I asked the previous owner about the work on it. He said the original owner worked on it but it worked fine. Hmmm... I ordered new hammer spring, firing pin, firing pin spring, sear spring and maybe a trigger spring. Parts came in over a few months time. I replaced the springs and test fired using primed cases. First 10 no problem. Second 10 there was 2 light hits that detonated on the second hit. Ground acouple thousands off the end of the firing pin spring. Test fired. As long as I go to half cock chamber a round the rifles fires. Forget to go to half cock and load I get a light hit. The last time I had it at the range it was raining. Shooting from under cover. I wiped the rifle down and put in the case. Apparently the inside of the case was wet at the muzzle end. So it developed a few surface rust spots on the last 8 inches of the barrel. I stripped it, polished it and cold blued it. You can see some pitting if you look close. How does it shoot? I had it shooting 1.5 inch groups @ 100 yards from a Cauldwell Lead Sled. The rifle is priced at $700 shipped to your FFL. The rear sight is removed for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rifle should work consistently when you open the lever to eject the spent case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
