'The safety is between your ears' Damn haven't heard it put that way since my grandpa took me shooting out back of the chicken house. I was 10 years old I believe, maybe 11. I miss my grandpa greatly.
Bullets don't apologize and they go where they're pointed ! My uncle's famous quote ! He harped gun safety and I still hear him in my head and memories !
Oh man. Quigley Down Under was my dad's favorite movie of all time. He would have loved going to this, we'd go shooting all the time. What a great event!
What the one woman said is so true. Even if you don't or can't shoot visiting with others is just about as fun. I've gone to local ranges and sometimes did more talking with other shooters than actually shooting, and a few times didn't shoot at all.
We think people shooting out that far, and sometimes much farther, with a scope is something, these people are doing that with open sights, that's impressive.
There are videos people shooting a mile using a sharps with iron sights. No easy feat by any stretch. But if you have any questions good set up and know what you are doing you can shoot at any distance.
My bride got me the Shiloh “big 50” Billy Dixon for my birthday and had it monogrammed with my initials. She loves me! I live in Houston, Texas and 350 yards is the longest range near me. One day maybe I’ll make it there.
That's on my...bucket list (badump tsch). I'm only 160 miles from Forsyth, and actually have a Pedersoli Quigley model. Just haven't ever worked up the confidence to actually compete.
Dang, wish I was that close. We drove from Central Texas last year and this year to play, that's almost 1500 miles. You definitely need to give it a go
Oh wow!!! guys this sounds awesome! The same movie along with some recent cultural changes is what got me into firearms. I will be socking away a few bucks to buy one of these rifles and get there ASAP! Next fathers day i hope! GREAT STUFF GUYS!!!
Look into used or "in-stock" rifles... the waiting list and waiting times are around a year if you want to order one from Shiloh Sharps. Also consider the Browning 1885 Hi-wall in .45-70 as an option to get started.
Good morning Mark.. I go to the QUIGLEY SHOOT every year since 2003 . except for 2014 when it was rained out and 2020 cause of Clovis. It takes me 1 and a half hours to get there cause I live right outside of billings . the QUIGLEY is a blast we spend one week there every year.. There is more money in campers there then in the whole town of first the.. Look forward to going every year. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA........
@@gawainethefirst when I wrote this comment it was to say COVID not Clovis I guess we are not aloud to say what you want ( even on you tube ) have you ever been to the QUIGLEY shoot ? If so let me hear from you and what you think. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.....
Loving this idea of Long range with open sights. Quigley is one of my fav western(-ish) movies next to Outlaw Josie Wales. I used to have an original Sharps 45/70 trapdoor (not carbine). So I particularly like those style of rifles. Blooming heavy though.
One must realize that Quigley shot is pure entertainment. There are very few people if any that can make a free handed shot like that and hit a target at distance.
Apart from the thousands of people who do that every weekend in Fullbore Matches in my country alone..... Add in UK, Canada, New Zealand etc .. Pretty sure America has a similar Match
@@freyatilly I also run a Sharps rifle with black powder, I made a 660 grain bore rider mold up for it... My best 5 shot groups at 1000 with ladder sights are all on a 1 meter board . I have tried it on my 1 mile, had a few close impacts but havnt hit the 4x4 plate .
You'd be hard pressed to find a community of people who the most kind, considerate, safe and fun loving people than in the firearms/ re-enacting community.
Colter Johnson belongs in the movies. He is a natural for the camera. Someone needs to direct him in the direction of the stage and screen. He would be amazing.
@@ronwatson4135 And if you believe that, then you are the one with shit for brains. When did you handle the actual Sharps? I have a Sharps and am aware of its capability and a bucket at that range is more than it can handle. Just movie stuff..
@@jamesharvey446 -- I held the actual gun from the move in Rawlings Wyoming in 1999 in a Traveling Gun Show called Wyoming Wild West. The gun had an authenticity certificate signed by the guns manufacturer and at least 10 pictures of Tom Selleck holding or aiming the gun. It is heavy and a bit awkward to hold but even as a guy who had never held one, I didn't find it as difficult to maneuver as you seem to whine about. Maybe you're just a Runt or to Soft to say the least.

BOY O BOY YOU DON`T HEAR THAT ANYMORE IN FAMILY OR FROM PARENTS ( YOU GOT TO TEACH THEM RESPECT). THAT IS WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS MORE THAN JUST ABOUT ANYTHING EXCEPT GOD AND JESUS.
Naw, totally not fair! Quigley didn't have a support for the rifle when he made his shots; he did it standing. And no partner to gauge the wind, just sand! (Sorry, I just HAD to, LOL!)
I got my first .22 single shot rifle when I was 10, my mother would cook anything I brought home (Squirrel, Rabbits, Quail, etc.) until I brought home a mouse, she screamed ???????

Dont we all and im now a pop pop too so i better get my arse to this event ASAP!!! LOL
I hear you on that.

Always treat the weapon as loaded no accident that way
God bless America.
God save America.
👍This is fantastic. All those families and friendly people. Uplifting stuff right there 👍
There should be a lot more get togethers like this. Teach kids about safety, maybe a few grownups too.
They used to teach shooting in schools.
Oh man. Quigley Down Under was my dad's favorite movie of all time. He would have loved going to this, we'd go shooting all the time. What a great event!
i think that film was just called quigley in australia
I said I don't have much use for one, Didn't say I didn't know how to use it. One of my top five cowboy movies of all time, Quigley Down Under.
What the one woman said is so true.

Looks as family fun as a cross between Quigly and Little House on the Prairee.

Your bride is a keeper, but of course you know that already.
@@gb-bp1me Yep ... she has put up with me for 54 years. Why? I've never figured that out but I'm glad she has.
I hope you make it to the shoot. Video your adventure and post on RUclips!
@@gb-bp1me Thank you. If I do, I'll video and post.

It's not about competing - it's about having fun! You need to be there next year! Thanks for watching! Tell your friends!
it's a bunch of like minded people - great place to make friends - come join the family!
You should finish up the rifle and go choot it.
Dang, wish I was that close. We drove from Central Texas last year and this year to play, that's almost 1500 miles. You definitely need to give it a go
What a great event! And what a great place!
It's nice to everyone outside enjoying themselves... sharing their love of guns & stories of survival & fear...all because they live in the States.
Made me smile. Looks great. Hello from the UK.🇬🇧 I like my .45/70 Sharps 1874.
Outstanding! So cool to see how much interest this has generated over the time.

I'm wondering if Tom Selleck himself ever appeared there.
No
And another thing to add to my bucket list!
BPCR is an awesome shooting discipline. Good coverage of this!
Just down the road from my place in Roundup Montana
I understand the original Sharps (with scabbard) used in the movie were donated to the Brownells museum by Selleck.
Love it!! Love to try it!
Gun education and safety is a must, and can still be fun for all participants! Good gun owners know this. A great family activity too.
That baby boy is so adorable! Smile 😊
Thats awesome, love seeing youth get into shooting.

I watch this once in a while, always interesting.
What a cool event!
This is on my bucket list before I go !
I was there as a spectator for the first time this year in 2022 I'll be back next year.
Greatest thing about America!
Very cool, it's on my list!
Dave doesn't take the competition too seriously...yeah right, that's why he usually wins or is in the top ten!
I just found your Channel 🙌 I love it! Thank you

Loved Quigley
All of those powerful rifles and nobody got shot ? I am sure that the gun-haters would be astounded.

Awesome! I wish I had the money
That looks like alot of fun
Where form is concerned - I can't help but notice how many people flinch their triggers.
It's a blast. God bless gun's.
I love that name!
Great family fun!
Lol! One must “brave the elements” a week before the longest day of the year! It is Montana. I’d probably have to wear a parka, but it looks fun.
That looks like fun
Great fun.
This was fun to watch. I'd love to come out and shoot sometime. It'd help to have a rifle though.
This is awesome I wanna do it .
I love you Roy.
The Henry rifles are also made, in my second amendment state Montana... It's a family sport.....,
Where can I get a Tshirt ?
awesome video. such a wholesome event .I wonder why that is ?
Aristotle on virtue: choice of a target - ethical; ability to hit that target - intellectual
Did Tom Selleck come to the event
bet if you asked Tom Selick, would make a guest appearance.
1000 yards with irons is pretty nutty
I noticed all the stands where the same, is that preference, rules, or what was actually used by the buffalo hunters?
Where's the girl from the thumbnail?
I see home schoolers all over the place.
Amen
I wonder if Tom Selleck has ever visited.
I can hear the lefties screaming! I love this kind of stuff!! 😊
I clicked because the pretty woman in the thumbnail but old guys with guns is cool too.
That thing will blow your lungs out
Oo mai god real !!! naturals guns cool ..!!✓®
@3:25 that buffalo had 5 legs!!
Shooters- get out and vote.
Interesting that they rest the barrel and not the forend on the shooting sticks
There are no scopes? I say at least two. Are they outlaws?
Is this a remake
Has Tom Selleck ever made an appearance at this event? Has anyone bothered to invite him?
And the government says there's no reason for us to be able to fire at 1000 yards!
Quigley didn’t use a tripod. Still, it looks like fun.
The Sharps used in the film had an aluminum barrel because it was too heavy for Tom to handle. The long-range shot was movie fake.
James Harvey A lying troll.

Is it a legal "Quigly" using a bipod?
Quigley used rocks and a dead guy occasionally.
@@ronwatson4135 The bucket shot was standing unsupported though.
@@Jennifer-dw8hl -- Yes, but that was not the only " shot " he made in the movie.
Fair question.

What is the most popular rifle make & the predominant calibre at the Quigley shoot
It's only one rifle.
@@wanaraz you couldn't be more wrong.
@@chucksherron nice try.

BTW I saw at least one high wall in this video.
@@chucksherron It was not an original in the movie it was a replica. And what does the caliber mean to the public?
What's a high wall?
I sure hope events like this one aren't legislated away! 2ndA Rights!

I got my first .22 single shot rifle when I was 10, my mother would cook anything I brought home (Squirrel, Rabbits, Quail, etc.) until I brought home a mouse, she screamed ???????
Could you fire an actual original gun, not a replica, or will it blow up, being so old?
"An armed society is a polite society."
Bisons, not Buffalos;)
5:49 those rifles are not pointing in a safe direction...
Abandoned arms leaning on rucksacks, flagging the unsuspecting civilians. Someone needs to get smoked and lectured on proper safety procedures.
