Re: For Those into CAS...Here's my finished Gun Cart

It works fine, it isn't the typical "wimpy" cart most are used to, but it will protect your guns in bad weather and it is made to lay flat and to be used as a seat also. I take all sorts of guns to a shoot, I enjoy Cowboy Action more for the guns and history than for just shooting. If all ...

Re: I love Leverguns

Ummm, is it just the lighting OR is the top left gun in your second picture in the original post a Burgess wrist slide rifle? I don't know what it's actually called but that's the best way I can describe it. What a fantastic group of rifles on display. Welcome to the forum. Wow, good eyes, I actual...

Re: Choices....405, 45/70, or 45/60?

I'm of the old school and never really thought of '95s as a lever action. I would vote for the 45-70, 45-60 or even a 45-75. These are all great original cartridges and will work on anything, when shot in the right place... 45-75... http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/100_3113.j...

I love Leverguns

I never heard of this site until a friend of mine told me about a classified ad on here about a Whitney Kennedy. I had to look and see what he was referring to and then signed up. I have a bunch of levers and I like the older stuff. I have 2 Whitney Kennedys and lots of other stuff. I have hunted mo...
