Tennesse Gun Book!
« on: November 08, 2012, 06:21:14 AM »
Not sure where to put this,but I just recived the book;Gunmakers of Buffalo Valley$Greasy Cove,by Dave Byrd.To say I'm blown away by this little book is an understatement! More pictures of GREAT Tennesse gun's than I had hoped for. And good descriptions and measurement's to boot!. Thank's Dennis for listing this one in the classified section.

Is that the drag-racing Buffalo Valley (Putnam- i thinks) or a different one?  Is this book in print or did you get the last one?

Still in print, Dave just recently printed this book. Good source of info on East TN rifles.

I MUST be gettting old! This book is more exiting than a Playboy! But then again,I'm partial to the Tenn style gun's anyway. "Pox" is one I built in the late '80's,first gun,bird's eye maple,.50 cal,42" 7/8's. My alltime favorite gun!
