From The Firearm Blog this AM, a Turkisk 1966 Winchester fitted with a water-cooled barrel...that is so steampunk it cries out fir its own SASS class!

    Ummm.... Micheal, that's a "18"66 Yellowboy. And why the heck would they think the barrel could possibly need water cooling?

    Oh, yeah, Turks.

    The Turks bloodied the Russians badly at Plevna with standard 1866's. Per my snarky comment above, my guess is that they conceived this model as a sustained-fire light support weapon.
