Happy birthday to the Highwall. JMB's first patent. Still going strong today. I need to go and get a cupcake and a candle.

On October 7, 1879, John Moses Browning was issued US patent number 220,271 for a breech-loading firearm.

I don't have an original High Wall, but I have an original Low Wall, made in 1889 in .32-20.

Very nice rifle Dave. I saw an 1885 for sale once but for the shape it was in and the price I had to pass. It was a tough decision tho.
