I will be at Bummers and would very much like to commit to getting a Spencer for the event. Does the 'layaway' plan apply to those as well?

Thanks

Not an approved vendor. But they have Spencer blanks. I know next to nothing about Spencers or their ammo but thought I would share.

They are about the fifth item down.

Yes the lay away plan applies to the Spencers

Thanks Jeremy, but this is for .44 Russian and 44-40, not the 56-50 Blank. I hope Tripp is planning on the 56-50

My Spencer ignorance shows through!:(

Reading through the posts it is the 56-50.

I have been getting e-mails from that vendor for a long time and always check out what is new (just in case and sometimes they have some original items). Leave it to them to have a good product/idea but not quite have it.

Does anyone know where you get live ammo in .56-50?

Re: Henry & Spencer WIG Sponsored Bummer Buy

Ten-X has factory live ammunition - 50 round box $134.99 for BPC and $129.99 for standard. http://www.tenxammo.com/files/Shoote...ng_3-10-08.pdf

If any of you buying one of these does not reload and you want to fire live I would strongly suggest that you look into reloading.

I will not be attending the reenactment, but I'M interested in one of the Spencer Rifles. How do I get on the list if I may not be attending the event?

Re: Henry & Spencer WIG Sponsored Bummer Buy

Guys,
I need to clear up one other issue. This special purchase is for those attending the Bummers Event and is not open to everyone. You must be registered for Bummers to take part in this event to purchase at this price.

Doesn't look like it Chris. Tripp posted the above a few pages back.

Well, that is a "bummer"! Thanks for the response. I guess I missed that in the lengthy number of posts.

Chris,

Don't let it be a bummer - YOU be a Bummer! Jeremy and I and a host of other MI fellows are going down together. Come with us! Get your spencer (I know the feeling, I'm getting one). We'd love to have you.

Best,

Will

We will be placing the order for these on June 1st. So if you want to take part in this Bummer Buy and save about $200 on one of these fine weapons now is the time to get your money to Matt Woodburn.

Re: Henry & Spencer WIG Sponsored Bummer Buy

Last call! Order is going in.

Amazing that we have 32 Henrys and 24 Spencers being ordered. Rebs won't stand a chance. I also got 10,000 rounds of surplus blank ammo donated from a Hollywood friend. Ok, that's just for the morons who really don't have a clue. I'll also say that we have two Sherman tanks, 60 AK-47s, and a rabid Bengal tiger that we intend to turn loose on the Johnnies. Hah! Really none of this will matter when wind fed flames in the pines reach 80 feet tall and glowing embers are actually making it to air traffic lanes. You ever see what 3200 degrees will do to a rifle? Good thing we got a discount.

Next Bully Buy: Coffins

Re: Henry & Spencer WIG Sponsored Bummer Buy

Curiously, what arrangements are going to be made for ammo? I would imagine killing Joe Brown's Pets makes these things hungry.
