Howdy folks.
I have (again) opportunity to buy an original spencer carbine in the rimfire configuration.
My concerns; the bore is listed as very good, but with only faint traces of rifling. If I ever want to shoot this, would it be futile with such rifling?
In my country, the centrefire conversion breechblock are not available. I would like to have the option of shooting it one day. Would this too be futile given the non availability of the drop in centrefire breechblock? Or is it possible to modify the original rimfire breechblock?
It is is good condition, and while it will be a collector, I want the option of shooting it one day.
What say ye all?
Thanks partners
