Picked up a New "Tool" Today

[Sabotloader]

I have been looking for one of these for a couple years.  I it is an DISC Original 50.  But more importantly it is what I call a big bore 50. I have titled it a DISC Carbine. It only has a 22" barrel and will work perfect for me during Idaho's late ML season since we hunt in the timber that time of the year.

I made several changes to the carbine. First the ODISC stock had to go so I put a DISC Extreme thumbhole on it.  It also came ready to shoot Orange plastic jackets, pulled that out and installed a Knight Western breech plug and a Lehigh #11 nipple.  Installed a western style Lehigh/Knight bolt and a newer non C tool hammer assembly.  The trigger is an original 3 screw Timney,



Then I put a Williams FP Peep sight on:



And the last thing was to install was a Williams #1690 Streamlined ramp with a 0.343 Williams Fire Sight and Williams Fire Sight Hood.  And for me the green fiber optic is much more visible so I swapped the red one out for a green .060 rod.







Now to be able to get to the farm and get it sighted in... The snow is the big hinderance there...

I did get oput and shoot the new carbine? the other day.

I used a bore sighter here at the house to get the sights close then wen to the farm to do some actual shooting.  I an mot much of a paper shooter I get bored. but anyway this is the first target that I shot with this new-to-me old Old Original DISC.



From there I set 4 clays at 75 yards and 3 at 100.  It was a very fun and successful day shooting from there. The range was clean  when I left
