Some of my guns, pictures
Here's my Browning model 71 Carbine. My first attempt at posting a picture to this group.
See how adding to my first pictures goes.....Here's my Browning model 1886 SRC standard.
While I'm at it, here's my Browning model 1886 SRC High Grade--which I sold.

It did take a little time. Kept having a problem with the 800X600 size not being available.
Now, to the delight of my many fans, I can express myself more completely.

I'm sending out telepathy messages telling you that you want to send me that Model 71....
Is it working?

Nice guns and congratulations on figuring out how to post pictures. Seems I have to re-learn it every time.

Very nice rifles!

Re: Some of my guns, pictures
Back in about 1986 or so, those 71 Brownings came out, I got a standard grade 24 incher. Then, after getting married again in 1995, my bride bought a new unfired carbine in same, the wood was virtually identical to the first. Finally, in 2006, I got a heck of a deal on two unfired hi-grades in rifle and carbine. All 4 are still unfired, as I hunt with a 1936 low 4000 serial number original. You have a start on a complete collection if you persue it over time, keep shopping. A .348 makes one feel ok in most any situation!!, if you still have eyes.
To hell with them fellas, buzzards gotta eat same as the worms.

Re: Some of my guns, pictures
If you have a 348 and 45-70 in leverguns you almost have it all covered.
Re: Some of my guns, pictures
Very nice. Add a browning in .22 and perhaps a citori and you should be set for all circumstances. I gave my brother an 1886 SRC and I have owned both a browning 71 in carbine and rifle. very nice shooters. congrats.

Re: Some of my guns, pictures
Those guns are really nice.....However..... In order for these guys on this sight to really accept your photography skills you need to get your toes in the pictures
