Gun porn.
I picked up a gun from my FFL guy the other day.
Got the gun from a forumite & was once again super pleased with how everything went. Pretty great bunch of guys I'v found in this & a couple other forums.
Anyway my camera crapped out on me but I found an old one in the kitchen & took some gun pictures.
1965 336 44 mag I just got.
1948 or 49, I forget, 336 35 Rem.
1998 Guide gun with a 22" barrel.
2007 308MX
1955 336 30/30. I'm almost done but really dragging my feet.
1894's & 1889's.
Top to bottom, 1894c 357, 1894 44mag, 1889 44/40, 1889 32/20 and the odd one out my Rossi 357.
Top to bottom,
1893 38/55, 1893 32/40 and a model 36 30/30.
The next two. a 1894 25/20 & another 1889 38/40.
Last but not least is something I bought a couple weeks ago. Its not a levergun or a big bore. But its a hoot to shoot!

I didn't know the Guide Gun was produced with a 22" barrel?

I bought it on a whim, I had the money & saw the gun, just had to have it.
Never liked the ports & a short barrel didn't matter, I liked the straight grip tho so kept it. Stumbled on a 22" barrel back when E-bay wasn't quite as communist as they are now & had them swapped out. Far as I'm concerened its about perfect now.

The 308MX came with nice wood & the piece I'm fitting to the 336 is a factory Marlin piece of wood with nice figure.Did you just get lucky and find rifles with beautiful wood on them or did You change the stocks out yourself?
The 1893 I got from precision & fitted/finished it myself. The Rossi I had a friend from another forum duplicate the factory piece & fit it to the gun & then I finished it.
I like doing it but it takes me a long time.
That 336 is the first one I personalised & its still not done.
I thought it was done when I got it rebarreled, thought it was done once the metal was refinished, thought it was done when I replaced the wood the first time. I think it'll be done for good once that wood is done. Hope so anyway.

Nah, its used & I got it at a good price. Besides, much as I love a nice levergun, I just cant walk around with one in my waistband. Dont think I have one that holds 16 rounds either.The pistol is nice too but just think -- for whatever you spent on the pistol, you could have bought another rifle or two.
