When I first saw it, I thought it was a stainless 1894c and the $415 price made me take a second look. As soon as I cycled the action I knew this one was coming home with me, it's the slickest Marlin I've ever handled. The buttplate is a nice added touch, but whoever did the wood took off too much m...

That B92 looks vaugely familiar

How does it shoot?

Warhawk

Very nice! That checkering pattern has a definite "Remington" look to it.

A good friend of mine in Kansas has had a couple of big labs that were like that, over 100#, unbelievably strong, and with more "guard dog" in them than you would expect from a lab. In fact he has a chocolate male right now that has those traits, he is a heck of a dog.

Warhawk

I ran across this one at a local gunshop that usually has completely outrageous prices, but this one was $415 and I snapped it up. It's a pre-safety Marlin 1894c that has been Armaloy plated, the buttplate has been replaced with a a metal buttplate, similar to a saddle ring carbine buttplate. The ac...

That is truly priceless.

I was in the Air Force, and like to stretch out when I sleep.

That thing must have been built for a Navy Submariner.

I bought one for my youngest son Cody, when he was a toddler, he's 23 and in USAF pilot training now. It's a 20 inch barrel carbine, and had been shot and hunted with before it came to the pawn shop where I bought it, I paid a whopping $125 for it. It's a fantastic shooter, he took his first deer wi...

I've got a .223 youth model Handi rifle that you can try. It's just sitting here in the safe waiting for my grandson to get a little older.

Warhawk

I have one that is just a year or two newer than that one, mine is a Micro Groove. Shoots extremely well, and wears a Weaver 3x scope. Let me know if you want to sell that scope.

Stainless Rossi 92 Trapper http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/P1020537.JPG And they are available in 454 Casull. The 16" stainless weighs just under 6 lbs. I've sent a few of these to the Northwest, Canada and Alaska for backpacker bear medicine. http://i121.photobucket.com/albums/o203/Nat...

Watching RIO CONCHOS right now, and Richard Boone is carrying what appears to be that exact same rifle. And you get a better look at the rifle in this movie.

Have you been to the museum at the Woolaroc Ranch near Bartlesville, OK?

They have the worlds top collection of Patterson Colts.

Warhawk

I know they are made by Uberti, but has anyone had an experience with a Beretta levergun? Cabela's here in Fort Worth has a Beretta 1873 on the used rack for $1K. C heckered straight stock, 20 inch octagon barrel, .45 Colt. Looks nearly new except for the toe of the buttstock which has many dings th...

I've been through it all boys. I suspect I've had just about every test run that they know to run. I've got colitis (hereditary) and take medication daily for that. I had the acid reflux so bad that it nearly killed me, literally. I had stomach valve surgery in 2001 (I was 41) to fix that. Between t...

Down here in Texas we can hogs and other varmints at night, and an illuminated reticle makes a lot of sense. I'm considering putting a Weaver 1.5-4.5x Classic Extreme on my 336 in 35 Rem.

My father was a Boeing Engineer on the Apollo program, Boeing built the first stage of the Saturn V rocket. Dad never talked about it much, although he did ask that his headstone be engraved with a picture of the Saturn V. It was only after he died that we found a literal ream of certificates, docum...

I use the SnakeStopper load like on Mr. Jeff's gunblast.com. For 38/357 loads, I use a 000 Buckshot pellet seated over #8 birdshot with a paper over-powder wad, and a few grains of Red Dot. Very deadly out to 30'. In the 44SPL/44Mag,I use a .440 lead ball seated over #8's. These loads are as much f...

I've tried the gas check method on .45 Colt loads, it's a lot of trouble for dubious results. The Speer shot capsules in .38 and .44 are much better. I've killed a fair number of snakes with both .38 and .44 shot loads using the speer shot capsules, they are easy to load and work fine. My brother ha...

And a set of paperwheels, for knife sharpening

So far so good, I like the dual speed option.

Warhawk

I had one of those in the late 1960's, my dad bought me a pump up Crosman for Christmas, but I wasn't strong enough to work it. So he took it back and got me this one. If I remember right, mine said Buffalo Bill on it somewhere. Most Daisy's cocked on the down stroke, with no resistance on the lever...

My wife is from Peabody, KS. I can't imagine Peabody ever having a photographer, but it must have. They are barely hanging onto the gas station there today.

I have one on my 1894, only one range trip so far, didn't get to do much more than a rough zero.

So far so good.

Warhawk

So far so good, different from band of brothers for sure. I think this is the only movie I've ever seen about the Marine Corps that didn't have a boot camp segment.

Warhawk

Thanks, I was hoping to hear from folks who had been there and done that.

Jasco it is.

I've finally found a reasonably priced Browning BSS, one of the reasons it is priced like it is ... the epoxy finish on the stock has numerous dings. Since I prefer an oil finish anyway, this epoxy stuff will have to go. I didn't have enough cash on me to buy it outright, so I put some money down on...

Be sure to send copies to Midway and Brownells.

Where did you get the idea that you can buy two mini's for the cost of one AR? IMO, the ONLY reason to own a Mini-14 is if you livein a state (CA) that bans the AR-15. I've owned several Mini-14's over the years, and every time I got rid of one I swore I would never own another one. I think it's fin...

Phifer, fairly common name with an uncommon spelling.

These are my mothers parents, who lived in Arkansas. They were married in 1917 so I would assume this is before he went off to WWI.

Just snow here, this was about 2:00 when we had around six inches. It's still snowing and we're up to about 10 inches.

Warhawk

For me it's the Rossi 92, at least of currently produced guns. If you're willing to pony up the price of a Henry, you should instead track down a Browning B92, it's the finest Win 92 clone ever made. Barring that, get a Rossi 92 and send it to Steve Young for his magic, which includes getting rid of...
