I aquired Browing 92 parts, hammer, trigger, mainspring, mainspring struts (rods) and seat, and trigger spring. I'm in the process of converting it. The tang safety will be covered by a tang sight. The front tang sight hole goes in the safety recess and covers it nicely. Didnt want to weld it shut ...

The info you're looking for is right here on Leverguns.com's home page under Winchester Levergun Resources. I have an 1892 Trapper in 45 colt and it is a mighty fine rifle. Tack Driver right out of the box. Good Luck

I found a couple of pictures of my 1937 Case Model C. We are binding wheat in preperation to thresh it. We plant a small 7 acre patch every year and harvest it in this old way. The binder is a John Deer 8'. Pictures were taken on June 14th 2008 and the temperature was in the high 90's as I recall. ...

Thanks guys. And yes, living off-grid is the goal but I'm not in a hurry. The first thing is to be in a situation where I can easily do it. And I don't mean to brag - I am just really excited about this. I'm 50 years old and can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I want to be in a situation...

Danny, Thanks for the tip on Mountain Lions. Oregon 'outlawed' huntin' em' with dogs, so they have gotten out of hand. Dadgum 'tree huggers' and 'earth muffins.' Oregon F&G advised me that I have the busiest Mountain Lion crossing in Oregon in the wilderness behind my place. Ya just don't see th...

:D Mighty fine, Danny....The Mountain Lions are causing problems in this neck of the woods. The Muleys have suffered more than the Elk. I have a big 'Tom' working behind my place in the Wilderness area. They mess with the new born calves too. I haven't ever killed a Mountain Lion, but that's next on...

That tent is as nice as most peoples homes in my area. I bet the hound enjoys laying near the heater. By the way what kind of hound is it. I have two daushounds I am holding as I type. Had a basset for 14 years, lost her last year. A good dog is hard to beat. I have a Lion Hound-Rhodesian Ridgeback...

Best wishes and a prayer sent. Stay positive...

Nope....that was in my living room before I set up the Tent. I wanted to make it as comfortable as possible for my Wife and my Hound. After all, Winter is a long spell, especially this year. It's still not over yet

Do They still call those King Heaters ? I grew up with several of those. My Dad would take the lid off and stick his foot in the stove to warm it up, with Boot on of course. I'm not sure what they call them. We call them a "Bush Stove" They are light and easy to pack in a bush plane. EPA ...

As you fellas can see, I've got it pretty rough out here. :) Wall to Wall carpet too :) "Life's a Beach and then ya Die" As we always say in huntin' camp; I wonder what the rich people are doing as we bite into some Elk back strap. http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh135/mchmannell/100_04...

Pokey, Thanks for the link and the tip on sluggin' the bore. The bore on this rifle is bright and shinny and the rifling is present, but not nearly defined as a new one. 1903 was awhile back and I think the rifle was used mainly for bench shootin'. I reckon it's seen quite a few rounds through it, b...

I am new to 'cast bullets.' In fact, I have never done it before. I have a 1903 1894 that has a mint bore and I ordered some ammo from Buffalo Arms, but my groups are just OK.

There are NEW Miroku 1886 ELs and 24" barreled Short Rifles showing up at this time. They have all of the lawyer induced falderal and need some parts replaced to be reliable. Off the rack they will sometimes fail to fire and that ain't good. Other than that they are VERY WELL made brutes and c...
