    “Restoring and Shooting the Antique Single Shot Rifle”

    —by Croft Barker. I have been looking for a copy of this book, they are ridiculously expensive starting about $150.

    I found a digital copy of Barker’s .50-70 Handbook online but the source does not have the above. Does anyone know of an online source for this one?

    Found sort of an answer, if anyone is interested. It is available on Internet Archive,

    I was hoping for something I could download and print, but this is the next best thing I guess, they allow you to read it online for an hour at a time.
