Another new member from DFW Texas
Hello,
I figured I ought to introduce myself. I'm new to the lever guns forum and new to lever guns in general as I have my first one inbound, a Browning BLR 7mm-08 that I'm getting in trade. I don't know much about it, but I'm looking forward to it. I'm retired USAF and am now a full time custom stock maker. M14/M1As and Garands are my passion, but I like them all, especially those still made out of wood and steel. I'm in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and interested in learning all I can.
Take Care,
Tony

Welcome to the Forum, Tony! In addition to the great bunch of guys from all around the country who participate on the LGF, there are quite a few in the DFW area who I'm sure will introduce themselves.

Welcome Tony - an interesting an not common piece and I am sure quality rifle - should be very accurate and have very good potential to reload for.

Welcome aboard Tony. I am also in the DFW area, as are several others here.

Thanks everyone!
I'm going through the threads and "edjumakat'n m'self." Lots of talent on this board.
Apparently it's a post 81 with a straight stock.

Welcome from up in the Panhandle. Thank you for your service and enjoy your BLR. I've got one in .308 that I bought new in 81.
