Hey Rube, I am watching this post intently as I am doing the same build at the same time. Please let me know of any sources you come up with. I also have an idea, I just have to get the guy to call me back. I'll let you know what I find. Tom So far the best source from above is www.treebonecarving....

Rube Burrows

What is and how much of a difference are the Pre 64 stocks compared to the Post 64 stocks?

Rube Burrows

I was going to say +1 to http://www.precisiongunstocks.com - same as Precision Gun Works. I can't seem to bring up the site right now so don't know if that's me or the site. Seems to me I remembered a "cowboy" set up for late 94s (post 64s)...but that may be a carbine (butt stock etc) kit...

Rube Burrows

Thanks guys for all the help. I will try those listed above and see if they have anything.

Rube Burrows

I have had some people here give me such good advise on a build im doing so I figured I would ask one more question to the public here. Im looking for a crescent style buttstock that will fit on a post 64 Winchester 94. The rifle was made in 1979. I am also looking for a forearm that will fit the sa...

Jr. and I just got back from town where we stopped at Books a Million. Just as we were headed out Jr. spotted a rack of DVDs for sale. They had the entire series of "Wanted Dead Alive" for $19.95! If there's a B.A.M. near you check 'em out. They also sell the whole set at some Walmarts. I...

That's the difference in supporting the Local small shop. they appriciate and rember You unlike Wally world or the box stores. We have a tiny Sporting Goods nearby that is jammed full of fishing tackle and reloading supplys. Good for You. Yeah, I try to support them whenever I can. I dont mind payi...

Being from Louisiana and living just 20 min north of the hell hole known as New Orleans I know all to well the kind of scum that lives there. I read about this the day after it happened and it made me sick. He was even in his dress blues. For someone to take the life of someone for something so stup...

I have been looking at a model 92 in 45 colt to go with my new vaqueros. I am confused though by the changes in name , ownership, manufacturer etc. of the various offerings. Rossi, Brastech, Puma, Legacy, Taurus, Chiappi, etc. Which ones are current manufacture and how can you tell who manufactured...

Rube Burrows

How's your 38-55 conversion going. I now have a donor rifle for the action and buttstock, so I am at least moving in the right direction. Did you order any of the parts yet? Tom I have ordered most of the parts including the 26" Octagon barrel. Im getting the receiver prepped the best I can to...

My thoughts exactly. I have never shot one or owned one so that give me a good excuse to get one.....in my book anyways.

Rube Burrows

Well its not the find of a lifetime or even close but I was happy with what I picked up today. I'll start off by saying that lever guns or cowboy guns in general are not big movers around where I live. I am currently building a 38-55 Winchester 94 and I was happy to find in my local gun shop 2 1/2 b...

Rube Burrows

Them 86s sure are some beautiful rifles.

Rube Burrows

Thanks, I actually ordered the Wheelers vise earlier today.

Rube Burrows

I purchased and use the bench mounted part of the two items shown but I made the hand held part from a 9" and a 30" piece of 2" X 3/4" flat bar. The 9" is drilled on each end for 1/2" bolts and the 30" piece has matching holes so the reciever can be clamped betwee...

[quote="Rube Burrows I watched that video and that is what got me wondering where I would find an action wrench like that. http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/cid=0/k=action+wrench/t=P/ksubmit=y/Products/All/search=action_wrench I didnt look thru all the pages, but it looks like several of them on ...

Rube Burrows

Rube, Griff uses a technique that is very similar to what P.O. Ackley described in one of his books. Ackley advocated wooden blocks, but did not add any suuport to the receiver of a Winchester 94. Here is a short clip of what is involved in removing the barrel on a similarly-shaped receiver (though...

Rube Burrows

Yeah, I dont want to mess it up but if it was something that I could just do at home I would rather save the 50.00 that the smith said it would cost for him to take it off. I need the barrel off because Classic Guns told me that they would CCH the 94 project that im working on. I need to get it off ...

Rube Burrows

Where could I get an action wrench for the Winchester 94? I need to take some barrels off. I called Winchester and they dont sell any tools. I dont see any on Brownells or Midway. If none are available, what are you guys using to help with the process of removing a barrel? Can someone give me some i...

Rube Burrows

I think it looks great and I look forward to seeing how it shoots.

Rube Burrows

Rube, Yes, that's a '79 receiver. The color case hardening was done with bone & charcoal by a fellar in WY. He no longers does case hardening. I understand that Turnball will as will Classic Guns, Inc. will both do Winchester 94s. They both claim to use blocks inside the frame to keep the frame...

Rube Burrows

Griff, Thank you very much for all of the info. That is pretty much the exact look im going for. I love that rifle. Was that a Post 64 receiver? I was asking about color case hardening my 1979 but was told by a few that they were not sure if they could do it for me due to the metal used in the 1970'...

Rube Burrows

Very nice rifle. I really like the 92s

Rube Burrows

I am thinking about doing this exact conversion. I would like to change the barrel because I want the octagon barrel, though reboring would be cheaper I am sure. Now I need to find a project 94...HMMMMN where would you look for a project 94? where o where? You fellows wouldn't know anyplace would y...

Rube Burrows

It is probably a top eject barrel with the extractor cut in place for the top eject. You MIGHT have to make minor action changes. Many report no changes necessary. PS - Jesse Ocumpaugh will rebore/rechamber your barrel for you for a modest price and he does very good work. If I was to get a rebore/...

Rube Burrows

Hello. I have a few project Winchesters laying around and was thinking about making one of them into a 38-55 caliber rifle. I have been wanting to try out that caliber for a while now. I found a barrel online at Numrich and was just curious; If I get the 26" barrel can I put it on my Winchester...

Rube Burrows

I can see the bottom guy's holster pretty good on my screen. Its just a dark colored holster and blends in with his pants.

Rube Burrows

Great movie.

Rube Burrows

Looks like they've done a good job suppling period correct weapons. Thank goodness for the replica market. Now lets hope more film makers will use correct time period weapons like they seem to be using in costuming. Can't wait for the film. Yeah.....I love authenticity. That is why I dont mind a go...

Rube Burrows

Sure, there are no new ones but me and my son regularly watch The Rifleman (our fav), Gunsmoke, The Lone Ranger, Bonanza, and a few others on the Western Channel and also World Harvest TV.

Rube Burrows

Im really looking forward to it. I have been following the making of this movie for a long time. I really think it will be well made and plain good.

Rube Burrows

Amazing work!!!!

It gave me what I was looking for. You could probably get a darker finish by repeating the process if you desired.

What did you use to brown it like that? I think it looks pretty darn good.
