Whitney-Burgess Info and Forum
The purpose of the site is to provide an opportunity for education and communication for those interested in the topic. The primary focus is antique lever action firearms stemming from the patents of Eli Whitney Sr. and Eli Whitney Jr. and those they collaborated with such as Burgess, Kennedy, Morse and Scharf. There were also be space devoted to single-shot rifles and those Whitney firearms that preceded the lever action rifles. All firearms manufactured by Andrew Burgess will be covered which will include the Burgess wrist operated repeating shotgun. As we know, the designs of Andew Burgess found their way into the firearms of other manufactures such as the Colt-Burgess rifle and many of the Marlin lever action rifles. I had not planned to include these as there are other sites devoted to Colt and Marlin Firearms. Please note that this site is just starting and the course it takes will be heavily influenced by the desires of the participants. Finally, there are two other fascinating lever action repeating rifles that also do not seem to have a home and are contemporary to our focus. Those are the rifles of James Bullard and Warren Evans. These are highly unique repeating rifles that truly deserve a home and I look forward to the opportunity to advance my knowledge of these fine firearms.
