Yep, me too!

Prices are much less out here in the Pacific NW. You want to see high prices? Check some of these out. http://www.merzantiques.com/ Those prices do seem high, but the value will hold, at least. Compare with buying a car for a similar amount. The car will be worthless junk in ten years! (or less) :s...

I like some models of all the types.

No argument, just a conversation about who likes what.

claybob86

I prefer the full length magazine, mostly because it just looks right to me. The 3/4 looks OK, but I really don't like a button magazine, it just looks wrong to me. All just personal preference, though, they're all good!

claybob86

I seem to see this dirty bore thing in gun shops quite a bit. Why not spend 30 seconds and 1 oily patch and add at least 50 bucks to the resale value? I don't get it...

claybob86

Glad you made it through, Mutt! Hang tough, and get well!

Claybob86, what a great cartoon, from the 1950's no less. Where did you come up with that, if you dont mind me asking? :D It's from a book my dad got from his dad called "Cowboys Out Our Way" by J. R. Williams. If you ever stumble across a copy, the price, whatever it might be, is not too...

Good job! And the pictures?

claybob86

You're being a little too hard on yourself. Just pitch 'em.

claybob86

I think a black synthetic stock would really go well with that metal finish.

EBLAR!

claybob86

My impression over the years has been that the aclu has very little to do with what their name suggests.

claybob86

I like 'em both, but my nod would go to "B" for the purpose you're after, for the reason mentioned by Kirk, also, as small as a signature picture will be, the less small detail, the better, IMHO.

claybob86

Right smack in the middle of the curve. 50.

claybob86

1984.

claybob86

I miss ol' Doc, too. Glad he's OK.

claybob86

Good info, Mr. Combs, thanks! But I'm not really a bolt action guy, what does "pressure relief the bolt" mean?

Thanks!

claybob86

To save money, yeah, but I have this affliction where if I can do something myself instead of paying someone else to do it, I do. I get more satisfaction out of life that way.

claybob86

How many years does it take to build a refinery? 5 years? 10? 2? Begin with the search for real estate, follow with the red tape, EPA......, follow with the building of the infrastructure of getting the oil there, building the buildings, to shipping the first gallon of fuel. I have no idea and am t...

I'd like to hear more details about that!

I've shot 1,000 yards, but never tried it with a .30-30.

This my friend Bill H. who is an avid Pennsylvania deer hunter. His carbine is an early 1950's era 32 Special. Bill has clobbered many white tails and black bears with this Winchester. Bill will tell anyone that will listen that his 32 hits harder than any 30-30. Yet he has never owned or hunted wi...

Mr. Miller: You stirred up some very interesting ON TOPIC conversation here. I, for one, have enjoyed it very much! Please don't get offended by any differences of opinion. We're just yackin' around the fire here. Thanks for your continued participation here!

claybob86

Another thanks! Much better!

claybob86

I'd like to see how it looks after getting cleaned up.

That's OK, I guess, but I'm really looking for a matched pair with consecutive serial numbers.

Kirk, thanks for the report. The picture is fabulous!

HUH?

claybob86

You can't do anything about the inanimate objects. Its the individuals. People can make fake guns look real and real guns look fake. If someone is so oblivious as to wave something like that around in public with no clue as to the potential consequences, well... An adult should know better and if a ...

... My personal opinon? Read one, you've read them all. But, don't take that as a negative criticism; for you know what to expect. I see your point, but each one has its own twists and turns. I read all of them too, and thoroughly enjoyed each one! I sure don't regret spending the time reading them...

claybob86

#@*&^%! Lookin' forward to the pictures!

Ya know, Chris, gloating is an ugly thing...but in this case, I'd say it's unavoidable!

Nice rifles!

claybob86

Any guesses as to what the winning bid will be? I have NO idea, but I'll guess $30,000 for starters.

claybob86

Original Winchester 1886.

Hi, Mutt! Nice to see you're still hangin' around.

I've been experimenting with a hho generator for more than a month. I have'nt put it on my truck yet but it is going on this weekend. Give me another week or two and I'll post my results,good or bad,with lots of details and opinions. The past couple weeks I've been mess'n with mothballs, I know it ...

How could you tell they were there?

claybob86

That truck's just not built "Ford Tough"!

claybob86

No need to be sorry, Blackhawk!

I done my studyin' and I don't see how that rear bridge could fail to add stiffness and strength, at least to the top part of the receiver. Not trying to say that makes it suitable for anything in particular, but...

claybob86

Sorry Gryphon, but the Mossy is basically a Win 94 with a bridge over the rear which means that the .454 and .460 are out. The 1894 locking block is at the rear of the action and cannot handle those pressures. USRA announced the .454 once but could never produce it. Is it not possible that the rear...

claybob86

Doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

claybob86

It's the rarest of rare. The only one like it in the world that was your father's!

Now where's the pictures?

I like that. We've had a framed copy of it on the wall for quite a number of years. There was a popular song made out of it in the late 60s or early 70s.

I see that solder has silver in it. Should be effective on werewolves.

Looks very nice! Good find!

Done.
