I'm new to casting, but have been hearing good things about Marlins and molds from Michael (Ranch Dog) over on Cast Boolits http://castboolits.gunloads.com/ I believe his 30-30 molds aren't due in until April ! but the field reports say they seem to work pretty well, and he will stock them. I have h...

Glad you're back, and that you had something good to take care of. It is refreshing to read all these posts from about the Country.

but I gotta love that quote...

Prayers sent. And our best..

Wish I had bought? Any of several Winchester levers, and i still want a few more tuned EMF M92s. One of those 16" Miroku .45LC M92s from a few years ago too. Sold and wish I hadn't? The twin to my little tuned J frame 640-1, and the Coonan Arms .357 Magnum, with more magazines. Both were great ...

I don't have a SAA, in either round. :cry: This is easier to live with when I pretend those old single actions are outdated and make good paperweights. (This is not an easy thing to do.) The 44 Special is a real cartridge and offers worthy competition to the 45LC. Having guns chambered for both roun...

Thank you for sharing thiis, and it is a beautiful morning outside with many blessings.

Merry Christmas to all.

There are a lot of great Westerns here, including some I haven't seen in ages.

I'll have to check amazon for some of these.

Poohgyrr

Our kids are gone, so it's the dogs and us now. The thugs living a few blocks away shoot rounds in the air just because they're like that, but something like this right here on our street would be pretty unusual. Good news is we have lots of Constables On Patrol here in the city; bad news is we have...

Poohgyrr

Yeah. Those pics keep my checkbook in hiding. I've had plans twice to finally order one from Steve when stuff happened and it got put on the back burner.

I don't always go for stainless, but the stainless, beadblasted M92/357 just makes too much sense not to have one. Nice pics!...

Poohgyrr

A tuned 26" M94 in 30 WCF with good wood, a steel Lyman, a limitless supply of of clean WW, and a few crates of primers and powder. Front sight to be figured out later.

Poohgyrr

For what it's worth, we've helped different women pick something and gotten each one as much training as we could. It does work much better when they pick the gun. A snub Speed Six with .38s, a Hi Power, a Detective Special, a Colt .45, and a J frame were some of the pistols picked. Others went for ...

Poohgyrr

Checking in!!

Poohgyrr

A M92 would be good. So would one of those M94s in 38-55.

Take downs will have my attention too....

Poohgyrr

Congrats!

Poohgyrr

Hmmm, I found this while searching for info on Ysabel's M92 in .45Colt.. :wink: And don't know how I missed this thread - well, yeah I do. It's been busy.. But my most used is still the .357 Magnum. Much as I like other rounds, this one is the most versatile for me. It will fit in everything from a ...

Poohgyrr

tomclink and Hobie both said it for me. FP or Marbles

ysabel,

did I miss a thread on your .45 Colt? What's the chance of hearing about it? I really like that.

I don't hunt birds anymore, so your Marlin gets my vote. Food or pests, 2 legs or 4, it will do more for me.

Poohgyrr

Congrats, and Thanks for the report too.

Poohgyrr

I've lost a couple of favorite forums before, and the old forum will be missed, but this one is doing well.

Poohgyrr

Thanks for all the posts. They are appreciated....

Poohgyrr

Nice start!

And umm, there are other Levers too.

Might be a bit addicting as well..

Poohgyrr

All the above, plus when the big loop is readily available and the standard loop isn't.

Besides, big loop Levers really are cool.

A guy at work wants to put a laser on his new Marlin. I hope I never see it.

Poohgyrr

Wow. I remember when it was that way here too.

Poohgyrr

I'd say check any place carefully before moving or taking a new job or whatever. We're fifth generation Northern Californians and I enjoy the good stuff here. I also enjoy bragging that our farmers feed a huge chunk of the USA, and the rest of the world too. I moved back to Northern CA for the blue ...

Poohgyrr

I like the EMF M92s, tuned by Steve, so much that I have sold some guns to get what I want and some friends think I am a little touched in the head. And these Levers use the original scopes: receiver or tang mounted peeps.. :wink: But these buddies just misunderstand life, and Levers, that's all. An...

Poohgyrr

Boy, that 45-75 looks pretty studly standing next to the 30WCF like that.

Poohgyrr

My partner at work got one a few years ago and it's now his best friend. Before that, it was German Shepards, which are still favorites - but I see the rat terrier is his bud.

It'd be fun to see how the ratty and our Lhasa get along; both think they are the Boss......

Poohgyrr

Um, NO.

At first, I thought the question was only one type .

That is almost a yes: I have not enough Levers, and one personal autoloader (a second autoloader was bought for work & doesn't count as personal).

Poohgyrr

Ordered one and am waiting for it. We may have to buy one or two of those magnetic bumper stickers too..

That's about it.

When I first went online and needed a handle, a nickname my sweetheart suggested came to mind. Something about being cuddly like Winnie the Pooh and having teeth/claws like Tigger.... I like the studly Tigger part. I don't have Pooh's belly; not yet anyway... Having the imagination that I do, I've u...

I remember something making me stop what I was doing and walk into a nearby office with a TV that morning. The TV is usually off, but it was on then. I realized everyone was right beneath the Towers, and thought OMG if those buildings fall, they are toast. They all know that too, and have no choice ...

Usually a 4" Smith .357 or .44 Special for handigun when we are truly in the woods with wild critters around. For rifle, either a short Lever, or a tanker Garand. Only times I've shot animals, in defense of people, have been dogs biting kids right here in town. I like dogs, but not when they're...

A friend at work tried to get me to buy a Rossi made .357 Lever for a long time, starting about 1980. Being confused about the truth, I didn't even consider it until finding all the information in Paco's Leverguns Forum. :shock: I now have two .357 M92s, one being a used EMF brand, pre-safety, that ...

Poohgyrr

Thank you for the pictures and reports. It looks like you have beautiful countryside there.

Poohgyrr

OK guys, I confess. I don't have any pics of my 94's!!! None at all !!! I can't believe it !!! Must have been too busy caressing and shooting all these years.

I'll have to borrow a camera and take some pics this weekend.

Those Mirchesters do shoot well though.

Poohgyrr

And pics are good too.

I don't have one, but would like to. And that's a good reason for another thread!

Anyone have any favorite Levers/guns or loads??

Poohgyrr

Joe, :wink: I just helped my partner install a wood stove in their place up in the mountains. Not too shabby... Just imagine, leaning back in the Lazy Boy, the smell of oak burning, a good Selleck western on TV, and wiping down a good W inchester ....... And as long as I get my chores done, my wife ...

Poohgyrr

The pics do look good....

Fondleing, opps I mean wiping down and inspecting, is a sign of good Levergun maintenance. It's also a good way to spend an winter evening in front of a good fire ...

Good story Junior. :D and I see him sometimes at the local honky tonk when he's not in jail. :x I've watched several of our local "kid thugs" grow up to be like that. Good news is some of those "kids" have gotten their act together and grown up to be better than that. Some other...

I'm pretty sure I remember seeing a Trails End in .45LC on my dealer's shelf at one time. And holding off for the take down 38-55 that was in the catalog...

But, there are other Levers out there, including the Marlins and M92s!

Poohgyrr

I thought we could use another topic to talk about, and I pick up my new to me 16" M94 in .45LC tomorrow, so :D here we are. Anyone have any pics or thoughts to share? Favorite loads? Favorite sights? Anyone have more than one brand & want to compare them? Hmmm... I have a 1911/.45, but no ...
