Send as many pictures as you'd like Don.  I'd be glad to post them.  (Helps me build up a little library for myself!)

Thanks for showing the Bedford s x s. I would love to see the swivel breech, too.

Thank you Don for letting us have a look at your awesome Bedford rifle!  I too would love seeing your swivel breech piece! Joel

Dave is going to try to post the swivel  pictures soon.  My photography skills are not great but hope you enjoy them. Wish I could find more A Daniels rifles.  In addition to his good work he serial numbered his pieces. The swivel is No. 17. I also have number 217 which is a single barrel percussion rifle by him.

Here are more of Don's pictures of the Side by Side:







I will post the swivel breech photos in a separate post in the "Antiques" section.  This gun deserves a topic of it's own.
