What are you hunting?

Lets say, I want it more for self defense in the woods ... Game will be Javelinas max. Dressed weight up to 70 kgs usually.

Straight hanging I am not sure.

But I would definitely want less angle than the Cavalry Holsters pictured.

Was there an Infantry holster with a different angle?

Thanks to all, Hermann

This is another draw that the unknowledgeable poo poo as being unsafe because you have to "paint" others when you draw. Done properly, the only thing the muzzle sweeps is the ground and your target.

GOOD point!

Arminius

Hi! I really like the high Cavalry draw. Where can I buy a High Cavalry, Right hand draw holster, of course for the SAA / clones, w 4 3/4" bbl? Meaning it should sit on my right hip, butt forward. I would like it to be in the style of a "Duke" Rig. I would rather have a special rig, t...

I adore old time specimens. But for hard hunting and using and shoting it a lot at the range I want a newly made one. The 7.62 x 54 R was IIRC the MOST made version! Serveral millions für Russia, pre 1917. And don´t forget, the 7.62 Russian iss still made in millions of rounds. And I have heard, the...

I BADLY

WITH stripper clip guide for easy loading!

Do you see any chance, that such a beauty will ever be offered?

thx, Hermann

Arminius

Had a gunsmith install a different front sight in a 16" Rossi. Millett broad, orange front sight. Was not happy, as the front sight was too tall. Tapped it out; it went out MUCH too easily! Tried to use two other front sights, one Millett ( only lower ) and one fire sight. Both "fell"...

Dear Sirs! I have several LA´s ( who here hasn´t? ;-)), but I miss one with 16" barrel. I want a 92 with 16" bbl in .38/.357. I´ve heard mixed things about Rossi´s quality, now a gunsmith said, Chiappa´s quality is also slipping. I do not know. What do you say? I really despise the Rossi s...

Some of them are out there, but mostly in deplorable condition. Two World Wars, a Civil War, the famous Russian / Sowjet Arms care, and corrosive ammo and steel jacketed bullets ... IMO ammo charging the ´95 is a PITA. But the 7.62 x 54R uses stripper clips! ( Bajo lug nice, but that´s not necessary...

I want a Winchester 95 in 7,62 x 54 R Russian, and with stripper clip guide. I want it NEWLY made, so I can shoot it! I want it very much! VERY! Any chance U.S.R.C or Browning will make such a piece?

I wish you luck, because I had a 7400 once ... what a P.O.S.! 10 rounders form Millett, RamLine, Triple K, National or USA or so ... the Triple K were the only ones to function.

Arminius

Ysabel Kid , If you look at the rear of a loaded .45 Colt cylinder, there is no space between the cartridge rims for the firing pin to rest. They are virtually rim to rim with no space between.

Sorry, it´s "slightly" OT ... I will NEVER understand why Colt didn´t retain the "Black Powder" "between the chambers" position: Hammer down between the chambers, no primer underneath, no cylinder rotation as it´s blocked by the hammer nose. 6 rds at the ready, total sa...

Many thanks to: http://marauder.homestead.com/Rifles.html It enabled me to disassemble my Marlin 1894c without problems, and it did help me on reassembly, too! ( I F***ING HATE the sentence: "reassemble in reverse order"!!!!! ) But the most icky thing at reassembling is to push in on that ...

Arminius

I have the U.S.F.A. Version. One of the prettiest guns I know.

Jams ... but I have to work on that, it has hardly been shot.

Reloading with open action (?) and being forced to use one round less than possible for LA´s s*cks!!

Hermann

Arminius

Wow!

Thanks a LOT!

I´ll get the new style carrier!!!

( and that site will keep me busy for a while

)

Hermann

Arminius

I am sorry, but I never cared much for Marlins, therefore I have no clue. My question:

will scope bases for the 1894 and the 1894 C be the same?

Is the size of the receiver and the screw spacing equal for .357 and .44 Mag guns ( I presume the 336 / .30-30 will be different )

TIA, Hermann

Arminius

I wonder, why mine won´t cycle 38´s ... they seem to hit under the Barrel, when levered.

Another question:

what is this boards opinion, on putting a Weaver Rail on a LA, and then an Aimpoint on it.

Remember: it´s a non collectible, modern Marlin!

Hermann

Arminius

Shot the Marin 1894 C today. Indoor, 20 m. Trigger is fine, the hammer extension is handy. Sights were laterally dead on, had to go up two steps on the rear sights ladder. I am disappointed, that it doesn´t feed 38´s! :evil: ( JFP ) Also the cycling was not so smooth. I wonder what to expect from a ...

Arminius

I became a 357 fan in general when my particular Army unit was issued Smith 66s in the late 80s. When I later learned the seals had been using 357 for at least a decade prior that sealed the deal for me as a.young and impressionable gi. Smith 66 s and 357 magnums in general were killing machines. f...

Arminius

All the pistol rounds would benefit from a good TC flat point bullet, including the 9mm and 45. That may be the simplest way to improve performance with the budget and treaty issues to consider. The Germans in WW I with the original, weaker loading tried TC bullets for better stopping power in Afri...

Arminius

Thanks!

That late???

I am not sure, but could it be, that ´78 there were already safeties on Marlins?

How was Marlin quality then?

TIA, Hermann

Arminius

The Germans had it right, again. The 7,62 mm Mauser Dates from 1896. In the Mauser C 96, which would be mighty fine in the semi / full auto version w 20 rd mags. The Tokarev is just a copy thereof. Still, the PPS 43 ( the Sudayev, not the heavy Shpagin ) would easily compete with modern Sh!t like PD...

I have one; the 9 mm variant. It´s the better choice. As much as I like the .45, in the longer barreled Camp the 9 is just fine. Whereas the 45 doesn´t gain speed, even may lose a little with some loads, the 9 mm gets speedier. Around the Energy of a .357 form 4 to 6" barrel, according to my Ch...
