There are houses within a half mile or so--'ya leave him alone or try to return him. I have done that. 2.) Your hunting (or whatever) and you see a mongrel or other nasty looking...

The World's First Levergun Dog
Dudes & fellow Shootists, I want to to meet Eddie. We have 14 Yorkshire Terriers and he is the first to want to follow in my footsteps. He is a crackshot with his new levergun and keeps the other 13 dogs on the up and up. He wants to go out tonight looking for cats.-----------Sixgun http://www.h...

Hey Kentdep, They don't make 'em anymore. Anytime you buy a quality out-of-print gun and take care of it, you won't loose any money. After a few years, you will make money and have a toy at the same time. Good as money in the bank. I have a Marlin CL 25-20 and its a tackdriver with the Lyman 70 gr f...

If the gun was manufactured before 1968, there is no law that says you have to have a serial number on it. But at the same time, if a gun deliberately had it's numbers messed with, I do believe thats not a good thing. If you can still read it, even with a magnifying glass, leave it alone. If its a m...

SmokeEater----Please, don't be. I have been at this game since 1972 and most of my good stuff was bought before prices went crazy. Although I punch a clock for a living, I always liked the old guns and stayed educated and tuned in to them.SmokeEater2 wrote:sixgun,I'm jealous! Those are nice rifles.

The problem with most American shooters is that most guys are downright cheap. They want a perfectly fitted and polished gun that shoots ragged holes at 200 yards for $400.
