Selah Vosburgh?
« on: February 13, 2011, 10:48:47 PM »
I just came across a heavy bench gun with block signature
S. Vosburgh.  I understand his son was one of the Founders of the
town of Tombstone Arizona.  It's a target rifle with Oct to Round
heavy barrel and burl walnut stock.  Interesting gun.  Small caliber
muzzleloader.  Anyone have any knowledge about him?

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.
