Does anyone know what kind of feeding mechinism this rifle has? I am inheriting one from my Father, which belonged to my Great-Grandfather. Planning to have a gunsmith look at it to make sure it's in proper working order before placing a few rounds down-range with it. I've been told that it is quite an impressive weapon, especially for larger game. Also, break-down instructions would be helpful. Thanks.
