Its amazing what shows up on this island we call home.I just bought a Sharps Borchardt 1881 military from a fellow gun nut that had been modified in a minor way .It showed up at the Victoria gunshow and has made it home.Now I need a replacement fore stock(no big deal I have a pattern) and a couple of barrel bands and maybe a nose cap to put it back to original.Overall it is in great shape and is a welcome member of my single shot collection.Would any one know of spare pats or someone who could do some casting of the barrel band as I have access to originals (they are part of a friends rifle and I cant steal them (borrow them maybe)).Graham
