Picked her up yesterday. Must say, that after 17 years ( owners manual with a 1/03 date) she's in great shape. But DIRTY with crusty storage gunk. I don't know what TC put in the barrel back then, but the bore is copper colored. Shows no rust or pitting, but its a curious color.
The trigger pull is very fine and crisp. Maybe 3 3&1/2 pounds. No creep.
So far as size goes, she's a great beast compared to my Firehawk.
I put my TC peep sight on. Its the one that looks like a converted open sight, so she's ready to hit the range, next nice day.
The Omega rounds out my battery quite nicely. Along with her sisters, now I can use every ignition source out there short of a match lock. The Omega can use BH209, and any other sub out there. My Firehawk, Hawken and flintlock cover the rest.
The QLA on this one is the nicest I've seen. I'm hopeful she will shoot lead well too.
I think ( ha ha ha) I'm done now.
Range report and pics to follow.
