Traditions has a new model coming out

[exMember]

Was talking to someone at Traditions today and they have a new sidelock coming out sometime in August ( I'd suspect it will be a few months after august).

Its a good looking rifle and at a stout 8+ lbs. Nice blade sights that I should be able to see fairly well. Nice long 32" barrel with a 1:48 twist. If its anything like my Woodsman Hawken, It will be a solid shooter.

The Traditions™ Mountain Rifle maintains the classic styling and handling of time-honored sidelock rifles, while offering great performance and affordability. The Mountain Rifle Kit is a .50 caliber percussion rifle with a longer 32" octagonal white barrel. The rifle has an overall length of 48" and weighs 8.15 lbs.

Believe it or not, it will be in the $480's which I think is a great deal. Also available in kit form.

Be really nice if they drilled and tapped the tang for a Lyman sight.

Be really nice if they drilled and tapped the tang for a Lyman sight.

Why would they do that? So, Lyman can sell sights? Only Lyman D&T their guns for their sights.

TC did it for their sights.

Traditions doesn't sell a peep sight.
