I am unaware of ANY Rugby team called "The Patriots"... those over-protected and high-priced ego-maniacs that play that silly American game of "football" are undeserving of any attention, except by the gendarmes! Ill add that I'm unaware of any professional sports team from any ...

Sixgun

Griff,
I really like the looks of the longer forend.....gives it more of a "short rifle" look.

Inletting is something that needs plenty of practice and patience. Those are two atributes I was left out in the cold with.---------------6

Sixgun

Steve, I was telling my bud that I was interested in the 375 and for him to stay off of it......and he pointed out to me, "yo, the stock has been cut". And a sloppy job it was......Man! I'm slippin'. I was so disgusted with myself, I never stayed around to see what it went for. Ahhhh...mos...

Sixgun

Well, in that case he can send her an Eric Holder, or maybe if he ate enough cabbage, an Obama.-----6

Sixgun

She is not good enough looking for me. I toss girls like that to the "lowers".

Sixgun

Looks like one of the older (better.....user friendly) Marlins from the seventies.

Curious....why did you change the barrel?---------6

Sixgun

Yea, I'm very anal about nice clean and polished brass. Don't matter how yo do it.....whatever floats your boat. I have four vibrators.....always corn cob media....with a teaspoon of Brasso added. When the media gets black, about a year later, I dump it in a 5 gal bucket and soak it in a cup of Tide...

Sixgun

I agree the 35 Rem. is more versatile than the 38-55.......and .....much easier to load for as the tolerences are very uniform.....just about anything you stick in it will shoot accurately......including cheap lead pistol bullets. I would go the extra mile and get a Ballard rifled Marlin or a Reming...

Sixgun

Ain't that somethin'!

Nice pic......

It's nice to see one of those....Pennsylvania used to have multitudes of those back in the sixties/seventies and I ain't seen one in 5-10 years.-----

Sixgun

I never noticed the gun. I'm an "A" man-----6

Sixgun

I find it amazing that Im still alive....after wrecking cars, snowmobiles, blowing up guns, drinking until I did not know my name, and doing all sorts of reckless stuff. But.....I sure had a good time.

------------6

Sixgun

Griff, I like that! Sure is nice to see an old wall hanger shooting again. I'm still having a hard time believing I used to shoot that gun on a somewhat regular basis. There was this "old advice" back in the day, and I have no idea who said it but it goes like this, "Whenever you shoo...

Sixgun

I'll have you know that I must have shot 500 rounds out of that Holt......for real.......I used it for my first couple of years of CAS.----6

Sixgun

The better you treat them, the more they complain.-----6

They just don't understand why their feet are shorter than men's. I try to explain that helps them to get closer to the sink.

Sixgun

I say "leave out the emotion and apply common sense". Let me tell you something that may put it all in a proper perspective. As a child, back in the late fifties, early sixties, I remember my very wealthy (not rich....wealthy) uncle having this rifle hanging over the fireplace. As a child,...

Sixgun

Griff,
Is that the Sam Holt????????!!!!!!!!!!!

My dad would be proud of you!!!!!

Sixgun

I hear the truckers rate Pennsylvania as having the worst roads in the lower 48.

On another note JN, the older I get, the less I like the cold........35 degrees today and rain...rain.....rain........nasty-------6

Sixgun

SIX............I have to work :( Well, you better go to work......there's lots of extended hands out there waiting for their handouts! :D It was a pretty good show....small...but a fair amount of good stuff. In addition to the entry fee and diesel for Gunny's monster 10,000 pound Ford truck, the on...

Sixgun

Hey Mossy, Are you headed to the Leesport show tomorrow? Me and "The Gunny" will be there at 8:30. If you go just look for a weird looking guy. (Me) and my bodyguard, a big 6'2" yahoo Marine. (gunny)----6 Still tight after 78 years. http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/100_0257.jpg

Like Elmer Keith used to say, "a sixgun is worthless without adjustable sights". Everyone sees the sights in a different way and with multitudes of different ammo of varying weights and velocities, adjustable sights on a Bearcat is the best thing to come along since the Smith and Wesson Mo...

Sixgun

Yea, I'm a big mouth, but you know what? ...I can back it all up.....from most every cartridge levergun, single action revolver and double actions guns from the 1870's to the Great War Of 1917. Anything after that is child's play and can be learned from books. Try to make a cartridge gun from the 18...

"Shoot Them And Avoid Trouble" was a store sign that promoted Winchester shotgun ammo. An original in excellent condition will bring $5,000 or more.

Even back in the day, (1920's) it caused a bit of controversy.

Some things never change, the motto still holds true today.----6

Sixgun

Casa, Yes, your gun is considered "pre-war". In value, it fits in between the flat band and the last of the pre-war Eastern carbines with the fixed front post. Hold on to it.....it's better than money in the bank. There was a time in my collecting career that hardly no one wanted anything ...

No, those are "peep sites".

Dang! 7.62 and Grizz have just cost me more money. The "thinking" of the Blackout is starting to sink in. I forgot you can make brass from the .223 of which I have an unlimited supply. I'm not much on knowledge on AR's, having only one, but I've shot dozens....but never really educated mys...

Sixgun

Man! I can see this thread going 20 pages. No doubt, 7.62 knows what he is talking about in the world of AR's and is the best here. :D I read all of his posts and have learned a lot about those kind of guns I never fooled with much. Mr. Murphy is also a very knowledgable guy. Just my uneducated advi...

Sixgun

My favorite is your 63 with the Martini a close second.

Sixgun

Its probably real.....by the people who have been educated by the Klinton/Obama/ era, nothing surprises me anymore..........good Lordy...that's nasty.----6

Sixgun

The way they are made doesn't lend themselves to "tightening" them up easily or with any sort of permanence. Put a tang sight on it and never look back. k Brent, I have no idea who told you that but after playing with a dozen or so of bolt peep 71's over the years, I have never seen that....

Sixgun

The more other people know you are into guns, the more phone calls you will get. As your reputation grows, so will your collection. Your wallet kind of takes a hit, but its not "spending money", as you will get it all back.......+ interest. Is your rifle D & T ed for a tang sight?........

Sixgun

When you said "rust", I expected to see something dramatic. That ain't nothing that a bit of 4-0 steel wool and Hoppe's #9 (or Kroil) won't take off. Degease and add a bit of Brownells paste cold blue and you will never notice the spot was ever there. The Bangor Punta box is correct for th...

Sixgun

Very cool and interesting pics. I'm sitting here and work and my buds here never saw anyting like that.-----------6

Sixgun

Nothin' like a nice N-frame 'Smith. :D You can shoot that baby until the cows come home with no worry. If you all take notice, the older N-frames are quickly disappearing from the scene with prices escalating. If I was a young man, I would buy every pre-1990 N-frame Smith in 98% or better condition ...

Sixgun

Griff,
Its a 38 S&W....you know.....the short, slightly fatter 38.

On a side note, Targetmaster gets derringers in all the time....some nice......some junk......mostly modern.......what caliber do you want it in?------------6

(don't ask for something like a "6.5 X .284".

)

Sixgun

Even the hammered shotgun I rescued from Sixgun's clutches I don't regret, even if it cost 8 times as much to be a particularly UGLY wall hanger! Ha! Hey! THAT was a Sam HOLT......you should be proud to own such a piece of Belgium history. Remember what P.T Barnum said ?????? (I can say these thing...

Sixgun

Im sure there are some but if so, its not many. I dont buy anything unless I can get my money back....instantly.....any-day-of-the-week......so......if it dont shoot....I get rid of it....then forget about it.-----------6

Sixgun

Well, I bunked the gunshop in favor of the gunclub. Blasted 50 rounds out of the Marlin with 210 gr. cast gas check traveling 1600. It shoots! And......it don't start spraying its shots when it heats up. After doing a mess of 100 and 200 meter shooting I set some clay birds on the 300 meter bank. Af...

Sixgun

1894, That's cool! Looks like a twin, with the Lyman and all. How does yours shoot?---6 Jay, You need to make another pilgrimage down this way while it's cold and there's nothing else to do. Take a few days off and bring a mild amount of loot. There's lots more hidden in the back. Bring a trailer or...

Sixgun

Wait 'till the new Sig MPX hits the shelves. They will be offered in pistol form and short barreled rifle (class 3) only and lots of guys are going to buy the pistol form and use the arm brace. Should be interesting.----6

Sixgun

Ahhhhh......for real...this stuff is junk compared to what I'm going to look at tomorrow. Some Colt factory experimental 1911 A1's from the 1920's just came in along with a 1940's factory experimental double action 1911 and a few newer experimental Colt Double Eagle 1911's in 10 mm. Too rich for me ...

Sixgun

Pete, There is not a mark of any kind anywhere on the rifle......no address....no proof marks.....no nothing. The only thing that shows its a Marlin is the "waffle top" receiver. There is no dovetail for a rear barrel sight. You can see on the side of the receiver where the hole was drille...

Sixgun

and decided that I have too many Winchesters and Colts, so........lately they have been sending me Marlins and Remingtons.........and........they wanted to keep them all uniform by staying with the same caliber, the 35 Remington.........they also know I don't accept anything in less in 95% condition...

Sixgun

A buddy of mine at the gunclub who does a lot of precision long range shooting and who is VERY anal about every aspect of reloading bought one of those and is very happy with it. He showed me a mess of 6.5 x 284's that he did with it and I was impressed. I only do it when using expensive or hard to ...

Sixgun

Last I heard, he and a buddy bought a gold mine, his buddy got the gold and Mescalelo got the shaft.----6

Sixgun

I guess that's for me as all my buddies call me an Italian Jew. Not quite sure if driving the same Jeep for the last 26 years while my newer Jeep sits in the garage, covered up, has anything to do with it.----6

Sixgun

That's my kind of joke.....or is it a joke?

He looks more sick every time he is on the news.....I mean.....that cat is uuuggggllllyy.

He might look a little better laying on his back with his hands folded.-----6

Sixgun

Very nice...the more guys who have these, the less likely "they" will mess with our rights. What twist is the barrel?---------------6 Now you need one of these with a "fun switch" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7itVQNs1eY http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/100_24691.jpg

I'm spoiled as I take these things for granted.-----------------6

Sixgun

Griff,
I'm leaving now.....see you in about 22 hours. Watch out for my orange Jeep.

Sixgun

Now, you all know I'm not a big fan of rifles made by relatives of mine but........dang, that one struck a note......short rifle with rd/oct. :D Nice wood.......my relatives are getting good on the fit, finish, and overall look. Nice one Griff.....can I have it? Did they do right on the twist?-------6
