Back in the 70's I, I had a 22 black powder rifle. It had a turret that held a 22 lr full of 3f a #3 buckshot for a ball and a kids cap to get her going. I think it was made by North American Arms but I'm not sure. I'm looking for an other one. It was a hoot to shoot and many a squirrel fell to it. Just one more time I'm saying dang why did I get rid of that. Does anybody remember them? And if so do you know where I could get one?

I remember the little rifles, used a 25 cal. ball and could also be loaded with a small amount of smokeless powder. The ball swedged down to 22 cal when firing. It didn't go over real hot so they were discontinued after a few years. Called a " Badger" or "beaver" or something like that. Alway though it was a good idea.
