Sorry I can't help you on the gun - but I CAN suggest that you pick up a pocket loupe as they sell for less than $10 and my aging eyes can't do without one.

Welcome back.

0/0 for me...

I've never sold a levergun and the ones I bought were before I was here. There is a possibility that I was already signed up here (on the old forum) when I found the Rossi 92 SRC in .357

One tip about that deadbolt, having worked in security hardware and as a 3rd-generation locksmith, the wood frame is the weakest part of the door/lock system. They sell a high-security hardened-steel plate that goes behind the fancy brass plate that attaches with 4" screws -- through the thin ...

I know the state is beautiful, and there is plenty of work there - but why stay and put up with that stuff?

How come when ever you want to sell something it's just "used" and when you want to purchase something used it's not used but "Vintage" :roll: It's a classic "price-setting" ploy... I never buy a "classic" item - but often times buy " used "! Let th...

I’m weird – an aberration so to speak… Why? I like firearms. It’s easy for me to “prove” my love of lever-action guns as well as my desire to collect bolt-action C&R type rifles (as I have many). I’m one of those “strange people who appreciates HISTORY” – so go figure… What distresses me is that...

mccain wants to give all the illegals "amnesty"... That don't work for me as i'm "dying" (financially) in this country. I'll be voting for Ron Paul via "write-in". I've decided that I'd rather go under in my county voting for the "right choice" than the lessor...

My best results have come with IMR-3031 and RL-7. My "pet" load is 40gr of RL-7 under a 405gr OT cast on Starline brass w/fed primer.

I hate to be a "source of gloom", but your chances of getting any Social Security disability benefits is about nil - and if you do, you'll need a good attorney. I'm disability retired from the government - yet SSI still has denied me my benefit. I fought taking a retirement for as long as ...

YUP!!! :D That's why I've re-directed the bulk of my 401k/457DCP funds into "foreign investments" - that DO PRECISELY THAT! Put a portion of your money into Chinese growth funds and see what happens – then you’ll know where to invest the rest! Let the environmental lib-tards “fall” on thei...

The whole part of “CA gun control legislation” that makes me laugh is that it creates an atmosphere of frenzied buying and hoarding.

$300 bucks was the price. Way to steep in my book.

I've shot rattlesnakes (have lots of them on my rural land) with bullets and even shot shells. They don't die fast - but I've found that a quick chop with a shovel (right behind the head) is the cheapest and fastest way to take care of them. I've also used hedge pruners - but only on the small ones ...

Use the blue on a screw that you might want to remove later. Red is for a permanent hold.

When I came to CA I had a water-saving toilet that only used half the water of a regular toilet. Problem was, you had to flush it 3 times to clear the bowl. Now that's progress. I live here and have one... The extra flushes have come to be popularly known as "courtesy-flushes"! :P What I ...

I think that you all should talk to an attorney. Many attorneys work for a contingency and providing your case has merit, you should receive a full-recovery + reasonable fees to pay your attorney.

Can you post a photo? Or even link a photo to one just like yours? That would really help, since I have a difficult time finding revolvers with grips that work well for me - Thanks!

I voted for the .357 / .38 because in experimenting with the cartridge, there's SO much that can be done with it. I also feel like it tends to gain more in the way of performance when fired in a long-gun (but I really can't prove that due to not owning anything other than a .44mag levergun).

A peep sight out on the barrel will be too far from your eye to work properly.

My Miroku copy of the Winchester 1886 take-down is far and away my nicest levergun. It's the last gun I'd ever consider selling.

CDNN is selling the CD 1892 take-downs for $690 - so that seems like an OK deal. I've bought a lot of stuff from CDNN and have not been disapointed yet - so I'd say to go for it.
