You might ask your dealer (FFL Holder) how he feels about this. I personally won't buy a firearm from someone that insists on having someone else ship a gun to me. Too often the seller can say "I don't know what happened to the gun, I gave it to my dealer to ship". I've bought and I've sol...

Never have had a G2, so I can't say a thing about them. I have many grip frames, both Contender and Encore, and many barrels from 17 HMR to 45-70. One of my favorites is a 308 Winchester 14" barrel with a muzzle break on it. With the break off and a thread protector in it's place it can be use...

I like a slimmer forearm also. Two weeks ago I bought a model 36 (bolt looks like an 1894) in 30-30 caliber. Before the day was over I smoothed up the action, which involved replacing the hammer spring, buffing the "wear spots" on the lever, bolt, and top of hammer. While I was doing that,...

Ha, I can see this is a good argument. I have several different rifles made by both manufactures. I used to hate Marlins and would have chosen a Winchester everytime. But after Cowboy Action Shooting for over three years, you can chase me all over the parking lot with a Winchester. I have a '94 Winc...

I have one, I don't shoot it a lot, but when I do take it out, I always enjoy shooting it. Other people at the range will notice you aren't shooting just an ordinary single action revolver. They are loud, but who amoung us doesn't have enough sense to wear hearing protection? One thing about these g...

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Dillon. I have a Rockchucker that I use for 45-70 and other rifle catridges, but for handguns I use a 550B Dillons. I have one set up for small pistol primers and one set up for large pistol primers. I have dies for 10 MM, 38 Super, 38 Special, 44 mag, 45 C, that I...

Well I didn't really plan on getting any new guns, but then again, I never really plan on it, I just see something I want. Yesterday I bought a Marlin 1894S in 44 Mag, something that I've been wanting. Also yesterday a Ruger Blackhawk in 44 Mag that I won at auction arrived, now I have a pair, they ...

I am collecting my CAS guns, one gun per completed semester of college. I have 2 Ruger NVs in 45 Colt, an inherited 97 shotgun and now will be looking for a Marlin Cowboy in 45 Colt. I was also thinking of a 92 in 45 Colt but the Marlin is easier to work on with drop in trigger kits, one piece firi...
