That's a dandy rifle ya got there Mike

I don't know what originally came in the bottle.

What I do know:
My very talented grandfather hand engraved it back in the early 70's.

I don't know the age. From what I understand the LL Bean models were a special edition. I really like the hinged flip top on the vintage model. Much easier to light, no sliding or touching the glass. https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-l-bean-alpine-aluminum-409586909 https://youtu.be/N7a...

My favorite candle lantern.
Just made the oak base for it today.

Thanks for the compliments.
If these old girls could talk.

Thanks.
It's very nostalgic casting & loading with the old school tools.

You're observant.
Normally there's a 16 ga. Parker SxS hanging in that location. Just changed things up temporarily for the picture.

Sorry about your Jeep mishap jeepnik

My 95 is indeed very simple. No A/C, radio, or airbags. (Had to get automatic transmission for the wife) Just looked at a new Wrangler. Are you kidding me, I wouldn't know what to do with all that unnecessary junk in them. Long gone are are the days of an engine & 4 wheels. http://i99.photobucke...

Why I bet it's got auto locking hubs and disc brakes too boot.

The pants & coat are from the mid 40's.
The vest and shirt, 60's.

Think about this a little. Your opening line: "I don't have a 30/30 lever, only 44's, but feel it is needed." A year or so from now, will you be saying the same thing if you purchase anything other than a .30wcf lever? Get what you really want & feel you need. Do-overs get expensive an...

Mar. 30, 2007 "30-30 vs. 32 Winchester Special? The .32 Special..... an oldie but a goodie. I am partial to the .30-30 myself and because of its faster twist, it has the ability to shoot heavier bullets accurately (up to 220 grs.) for superior down range performance. Historically speaking, the ...

A few of us get out there from time to time with a levergun.

Good one...

And now one of these can become reality

Thankful for the little things in life.
Sometimes the smallest of things can have great significance when the story is known and told.

Sharp looking Marlin setup with a Leupold M8.
Knife ain't bad looking either.

I hate a scope on a lever gun but my eyes love em. I may have to get a mount like that for my 1920's vintage 94. Hope you get your deer. It's all in perception. The old timers were after the optical advantage back in the day as well. You gotta admit, this 73 has a total cool factor to it. 8) This m...

They were making 94s in 1943? During the war? http://www.levergunscommunity.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=29545 Thanks for the education. Hummmm!! I may have been educated myself here. :shock: The first 5 of my serial number: 13123** "1941 end of year serial number was 1313301 (CFM), 1191307 (Ma...

What are you scoping?
Does it have to be a new scope?
If you're looking to do a scout type setup, there's a couple of dandy EER Leupold M8 2x scopes on eBay right now.
Those older Weaver 3x's are a great little scope. Still plenty around.

Lookin' good..... (My '51 94 strings a hair vertical, too...But, only the first shot counts, right?) Blaine, This 1943 love's those 150 grain PP's. The vertical string is probably heat related. That group was done with very little time between shots. I was really hoping this 1943 would like the sam...

I don't use them.
Just handling them from time to time seems to make everything right in the world for a little while anyway.

If I still had my eyesight of yesteryear and didn't need optical enhancement it would be one of these.

Interesting observation.
5 years or so ago this thread would have been 3 + pages with over a thousand + views by now.

Griff, the only 2 screws I see up front are those securing the Scope Ring to the Base. If those are the ones you are referring to, they do not go through the Base and into the receiver. Is there another style/manufacturer of a Base ?? I only the the Weaver style I have, and that picture of the Will...
