Hey guys and gals, Two Flints suggested i post a few questions:

i have already printed out much of the fantastic info from your forum, unbelievable!! thanks!

main question: i shoot a cimarron, uberti henry: it was wonderful out of the box, (no changes necessary and very accurate).It can shoot a complete team competition with no loss of accuracy
(i make my own loads)

i want to shoot a spencer carbine, instead, in the breechloader competitons

is my best bet for ease and excellent accuracy the armisport spencer carbine??  

i am not a gun collector and don't care about originals unless they are the way to go, in which case I am ready

does the importer matter, taylor or cimarron?  

do i need any modifications out of the box, trigger pull, rear site?  

is it accurate? to me that means 1 1/2 to 2 inch groups off the bench @ 50 yards, i'm not the best benchshooter, but the henry does this.  

are they all the same or has the quality improved?

thanks in advance...what a luxury to have this forum!
