Which is a crock.

But Louis being Louis, and you being Trevor, must go to all sily lengths,
to defend Louis perennial sloppy postings.

The Model 1887 was not a bloody rifle. End of story.

Now go back to picking scabs, Trevor.

FWIW, Tom, I am perfectly clear on what an 1887 is, it is a shotgun.

The Model 87 on the other hand, would be the Musket that Louis has.
