Hurricane.....about 15 years ago I went to a local sale which offered several kentuckies.    One of the guns was an outstanding Leman rifle.   Iron mounted throughout, including an intricate patchbox,  with beautiful engraving......really
an outstanding gun.  There was also another Lancaster gun there, can't remember the name.   Unfortunately, all of the
good guns went to a fellow who sat in the back of the room with an older woman, I think it was his mother, and apparently they had money.....they bought all the good stuff.  The gun that really stood out was that Leman, a super gun........Don

Hurricane.....Nope, if I remember correctly it was a full stock gun, and had a real neat patchbox, and I do remember it
was all iron mounted, great engraving on it........Don
