Out of a class of 68 gone, 8 ont of tbe 6 best were 
made by Pape. Tbe Greener gnn was protested 
against on the spot for having its score false counted, 
the fact proven there, and afterwards confirmed by 
same gnn being shot for two days per week for six 
weeks in succession, when its average score only took 
34th place, its very best score being greatly below the 
scores of the best six guns.

Call the attention of the Sportsmen of America to the 
extreme SIMPLICITY, STRENTD and DURABIL¬ 
ITY of their New Patent “SIMPLEX” Breech loader 
and INDEPENDENT EXTRACTOR. 
The parts in this new action are so few (only two,) 
its mechanical soundness so thorough, and the 
strength and simplicity of the action so great, that 
W. & P. feel sure it will supercede all the complicated 
and manifold grips now in use, its one powerful grip 
being far stronger than any double, treble or quadruple 
grip now used. In tills new action LEVER and GRIP 
ARE ONE SOLID PIECE OF STEEL and the AN¬ 
GLE of the BODY is left in its ENTIRE STRENGTH. 
Drawings of action and extractor will be sent on ap¬ 
plication, and orders may be forwarded through any 
of the best honsos in the States for execution in the 
Spring.
