Schofield Uberti with shoulderstock...

[lionrobe]

Hi all, here's my Schofield Uberti. Fan of shoulderstocks (not historically for Schofield) I commissioned a gunsmith. He did the job to make fit a Howdah's shoulderstock on my Schofield.
Later, a friend engraved both the grips and the shoulderstock.
I reload the 45 ACP with black powder.

Very handsome example you have there.
Did you purchase the tax stamp, and register it as a SBR (Short Barreled Rifle) ?
If not, what justification did your gunsmith give for not doing so?

That stock really looks good on that Schofield.

Hi, that handgun, with or not shoulderstock, need the highest level of authorization in France

Interesting. Is this license harder to get then a license for a percussion revolver?

Reminds me of the stock that went on the Webley revolver.

Looks really nice with those matching grips.

In France, for percussion revolvers, you just need to be 18+

18 to have a cap 'n ball? Well that sucks.

Thank you Sir for that information. France seems to have more lenient laws then the rest of Europe.

Love their shotguns!!! Georges Granger especially!!

Interesting means of attachment. Looks well done.

I noted that one poster ask about "tax stamps". I think we sometimes forget that we have forum members from other countries. It's nice to know that there are others around the world who believe in the RKBA, and in many places they have to jump through some pretty tight hoops to own firearms.

Mssr. Lionrobe,

Welcome back to THR.

I recall you were a member of THR previously. Could you possibly repost pictures of your beautiful Walker with the shoulder stock. I found your post from several years ago in the Walker Club archives, but the link to those pics are broken.

Merci

It's much harder to tell when they write English better than we Americans...
