Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Cimarron 1873 Texas Brush Popper, .44-40, 18.5” barrel. Easily holds ten rounds. I bought this gun to use as a platform for an article for the Chronicle. The Brush Popper has a half octagon/half round barrel. Over the years I have accumulated numerous parts that I bought and then removed from different guns for different articles. I bought this gun with the idea of incorporating basically every bell and whistle commonly available into it. After the work was done I took it to the range and fired 50 rounds to test function and then put it in the safe. (It does have a couple of minor safe dings in the wood.) It includes over $1,100.00 in parts: C&I 4th Gen Short Stroke Shotgun Boogie Coil Mainspring (Just these two items are over $600.00) PV Lever Wrap Shotgun Boogie Aluminum Carrier Lever Lock Plug Shotgun Boogie Loading Gate Marbles Front and Rear Sights with Big Bead Reduced Power Trigger Safety Spring Wire Lever/Lifter springs with Hardened Screws Tool Steel Firing Pin and Reduced Power Spring Slix Straight Trigger Brass Magazine Tube Plug Laser Checkering by Taz $2,000.00 plus $37.00 postage. If you want additional insurance that will be whatever the P.O. charges me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Very nice! But, it's a 44-40. Doesn't matter how fast you can lever it, still gotta wait for the smoke to clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
