I have a choice to make.  I already have a .45-60 Chapparell '76 with an octogon 24 inch barrrel.  What I want to get is the NWMP version but in .45-60.  I would like to get some input on the merrits of getting the Chappy over the Uberti or vice a versa.

Listen!  Do you hear that?  The roar of Cannons and the screams of the dying.  Ahh!  Music to my ears.

My chappy in 45-60 in the NWMP is highly accurate at 50 yds and nicely done.

I will get it smoothed out by my smith friend and given a lighter trigger pull in time.

Since I wanted the MWMP version I could not see paying double for the uberti version.

Now if'n you want the crossfire trail model - I am sure buying the uberti version is cheaper than getting a chappy and then paying someone to redo the finish to match the crossfire trail carbine.
