is there a way I can take a video that I found on youtube and copy it to my windows media player or just to my computer? I found a few videos I want the guys at work to see but our government computers block youtube and the like. I would like to be able to just send the video in an e-mail if possibl...

So sorry for your loss. been through that ordeal more than I like to think about. A man can have no better friend than that of a faithful dog. They are members of the family.

So sorry for your loss. A good dog is one of the best things a man can have. I have three here in the room with me now and I know when it is their time to go I will shed more than a few tears. They are not just animals but members of the family.

Is that the factory front sight on your 1894CL? It looks like a remington front sight.
Dave

TX50Cal

I have an 1894CL in 32-20. I am thinking about putting either a skinner sight or scope on it. Does anyone have any pictures of the 1894CL with receiver sights or scope. If I scope it I will use probably a Leupold 2-7X33 compact scope. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

That is possible, but I noticed that if he simply twisted his belt around, the knife should be behind the gun, not in front of it.[/quote]
If the gun was worn on the right side, the knife would be behind the gun. When he twisted the rig around the knife would be in the front on the left side.

And here I thought you guys were smart. I can't believe any of you would reccommend such an anemic cartridge as the .243. Why, all you need to do is go to some hunting forums on the web and they'll tell you straight up the 243 isn't good for anything. You guys just need to stick with levers.;) Dave ...

My son and I would be interested in doing this as long as it was after school was out for the year. Let me know and I'll try to get off work.

The prison I work at used to be a Federal Medical Center where we had low custody all the way to Max. Now we are a FCI Low and have more problems with these inmates than we ever had with the higher security guys. And we will be opening a wing for psych inmates. This should be interesting:) Good luck...

I guess I'll throw mine in, but I'm going down in caliber. I'd like a nice Walnut and Blued (or CCH) Cowboy rifle in 25-20. I just love that little caliber. I sold my last one like an idiot. I have a NIB 1894CL Limited Edition in 32-20 but sure would like another 25-20.

Anybody know of a good peep sight that would go on a Browning 53? Something that would go along with the lines of the rifle. Thanks for any info.

Just picked up a NIB Marlin 1894CL Cowboy in 32-20. It should be easier to take out in the woods than my Browning 53 32-20. I'm thinking about putting a set of Skinner peep sights on it. Does anyone have one with that sight setup? Any pictures? Thanks,

Went there a couple of years ago and what I saw that was really cool was either a Marlin or Winchester lever with Ivory stock and forarm. That was kinda neat.

Local gunshop has a Marlin 39 serial # O 123XX with a * on the top tang. Can someone tell me what this star means. I heard something about it before but can't for the life of me remember what it meant.

Local shop in the D/FW area of TX has almost the exact same BLR with the same scope in almost new condition. They are asking $589. Don't know if you are in the area or not but you might check it out if you are. Pioneer Gunshop in bedford.

Local dealer has a Winchester 92 rifle, octagon bbl, made in 1907 that started life as a 38-40.

Heck, I've got one for sale in the classifieds I can't give away. It's a shooter not a collector though. The butt stock has been cut straight and a pad added and sling swivels added by the previous owner. Otherwise is is in excellent condition. Cabelas offered me $575 for it so I know it is worth th...

The F-14 can easily fly with one engine. He was probably trying to bring it back to land safely when the other engine went out. When you loose both engines you lose hydraulics. Kinda hard to bring it in that way.
