Been away...back with something special (at least to me)

Post by firefuzz »

Hi guys and gals,

Been away for awhile but I'm hoping to be able to show up a little more often. Had to sell a few including my Browning '95 in '06 but managed to hang on to most of the herd. Remember this:

That pic impressed me so much so here's mine:

My original Uberti '76 in .45-60. Now after the mods:

May your rifle always shoot straight, your mag never run dry, you always have one more round than you have adversaries, and your good mate always be there to watch your back.

William -

Welcome back, always a pleasure.

I love it; love the color, barrel, the tang sight... I even like the blanket it's layin' on : )

Makes me wanna check the edge on my Wilson skinnin' knife ; )

Good for you !

Still working out the sights, gotta take a file to the front just a lil bit. Gonna put some type of folding rear to get it plumb outta the way when using the tang sight. It's unbelievable the difference losing all the weight that 6" of barrel and half the mag tube makes in the way the gun handles. Well worth the mods as well as having a more unique piece. Attracts alot of attention at the range.

Man I love this ole shooter. Kicks like a light loaded .410 when I'm shooting a 300gr cast FPRN bullet running about 1350 fps. Kids love to hear the BBOOOOMMM instead of crack when it goes off.
