[July 13, 1888 



75 SUCCESSIVE SHOTS. 



THE 15 BEST TAEGETS EYEE SEEN, 



AT 60 FEET, WEBE MADE BY 

 ife. j&flfeK iHJf^ir* ^5»^k. Joe 



Hiram Engle, with 15 Stevens Rifles, of the ordi- 

 nary $20 mate. 



He states under oath, that he fired five shots, no 

 more, from each rifle, every one of the 75 shots 

 striking a 6-10 inch bullseye, about the size of a 

 silver dime, and that everything that leaves the 

 Stevens factory must shoot nearly or quite as well 

 or it cannot pass. 



Every arm is as carefully made as a Waltham 

 watch. The only difficulty I have with them, is to 

 get enough to fill my orders. When one goes to a 

 neighborhood a dozen or a hundred more are sure 

 to follow, and the makers find it impossible to keep 

 up with the demand. Like the Waltham people, 

 the morethev make, the greater the new demands 

 become. SOLD BY DEALERS EVERYWHERE.

New York, May 19, 1880. 



I avail of this occasion to inform you that the 

 little pocket rifle that I bought, from you sis months 

 ago is a perfect gem. On my last trip I had occa- 

 sion to use it in the woods, and out of 100 shots I 

 killed 87 birds, the largest being a wild pigeon at 

 distances ranging from 100 to 300 feet. For ac- 

 curacy and perfection I consider the Stevens rifle 

 unrivalled. Hoping this statement will give you 

 pleasure, I remain, dear sir, 



Yours, very respectfully, J, A. P. Boxalde.
