I recently came across an older Thomson Center .50 Cal. and in the pics I got I thought it was a newer version. Turned out to be quite older than I expected. I do not know anything about this type of firearm and any help would be greatly appreciated. First off does anyone know anything about it? (see Pic) Anything I should be cautious of before buying? Rusty barrel, firing mechanism, that sort of thing. Secondly, if so how does it operate? I know how to load and all safety aspects of it I just can't seem to find any info on it. I'm an avid hunter of 40+ years and very well versed in firearms. I know there is a lot more care to be taken with these type guns so this is why I'm asking. Not the best pics as I don't have the gun in person.
Thanks,
Rory
