A buddy and I went to a store about 50 miles away, as he had some store credit he needed to use up and the weather was not scheduled to be anything dandy.
I started looking at the single shots, and they had the exact gun I had been looking at and thinking about ordering from the Buffalo Arms website. At a competitive price.
I ended up coming home with an Uberti 1885 with pistol grip in 30-40 US Army freakin Krag.
3rd one down on this link.

I am psyched. Even got them to throw in a set of dies, and knock some $$ off for a tiny forearm dink.
Off to the range tomorrow to shoot some jack---d bullets, and see how that goes.
I'm not too sure about the factory sights yet, might need to scope it or put a barrel mounted peep on it. The ideal would be a set of blocks that could do double duty as a peep base or scope mount.
Any input on this sight stuff? A straight quality 4x doesn't sound bad either.
This probably sounds really bad, thought about chopping the barrel off and hunting with it.
