Leverguns!!!!

[Griff]

Okey dokey... we ain't done a leverporn pic series for some time! Taking mine out to take a pic of the '50 I posted in Joe's thread, ended up with several of mine leaned up against the safe door.


From the left:
1972 mdl 64A, .30-30
1986 Uberti 1873, .45Colt
1979 mdl 94 custom rifle, .30-30
1978 mdl 94 carbine, .30-30
1976 mdl 94 Bi-Centennial Commemorative, .30-30
2002 EMF/Rossi 1892 Short Rifle, .45Colt
2008 Uberti Henry, .45Colt
1964 Canadian Centennial coverted to trapper, .30-30
1950 mdl 94 carbine, .30-30

Argghhhh... just thought about getting a bunch more out, cleaning the cosmoline off and taking a bigger pic... Nope, not gonna happen... other chores await my attention! Heck, still have another .30-30 and a .38Spl Rossi 1892 in the safe... plus a Marlin or two... dern door's not wide enough!

[Pitchy]

Well Griff that would be hard to top, nic collection.

[Warhawk]

I won't even attempt to identify each one ...

Top to bottom again, BLR81 7MM08, Marlin 1894 25/20, homemade 336SC 30/30, Marlin 1889 32/20


Left to right this time, 1895 45/70 buttstock on rack barrel in corner, (I need more room ) Marlin model 36 30/30, 336SC 35 Rem, Marlin 336/44mag, Marlin 39M, 336A 35 Rem, Henry youth 22, Marlin 308MX. Thats a Mossberg bolt shotgun leaning against the cabinet & a Crickit 22 behind it. To the left of the rack, behind the 45/70, is a Mossberg 12GA, a stock & a 58 caliber muzzle loader. This covers most of them I think, leverguns anyways.

You need to post a pic of the 39M Octagon when you get it.

I will, I was hoping it would be here by now. I haven't been this impatient to get a gun in quite a while.

Here you go

[Warhawk]

Here is the 39M Octagon I bought from the shop Hobie works for.

I did some research on it, about 2100 of these were made in 1973, the only year they were made.









I just got home with it, haven't even wiped it down yet.

[Griff]

Very nice Warhawk. Great lookin' example of a great collectable.

[Sixgun]

I ain't diggin' em out.------Sixgun

[Griff]

I ain't sure, but Sixgun... are your sixguns outnumbered by your leverguns?

Griff,
I just don't know anymore. I really don't care---some go--some come. After 40 years it becomes boring. It like "do I pick up a gallon of milk or 4 quarts of cow juice.

[DunRanull]

Leverdude.. What a collection! LOL my old woman thinks I have too many rifles... They just don't understand the craving and the pride of possession!
One question, what do you mean by "Home-made" rifle? You used the term several times..
Thanx, Dun

[Griff]

Borregos,

Nice looking selection of leverguns!

By homemade I mean parts guns really. I shouldn't say home made in here though, theres a guy here who actually makes them from scratch. I just acumulate pieces until I can build a rifle.
The 444 was made on a 336 action but everything except the reciever is a 444 part. The 30 30 is built on a pre saftey 336 action with a 336SC barrel & tube. I fit & finish the wood, fiddle with the actions until they work & have my smith install the barrel, get headspacing right & finish the metal. The 1889's are puzzles too as is the 1893 32/40, the 1894 25/20 and another 1894 32/20 that I dont think was in those pics. Just got that one back. I wanted a 32/20 I could scope so I took my 1894C & swapped in a 1894CL 32/20 barrel I had laying around. Was pretty much a simple barrel swap except for needing a different loading gate. Heres that one.


I need to redo the buttstock & see if I can stain the right side to match the other & reshape the comb a little.

My wife gave up on me & guns awhile ago, it dont make sense to her but she lets me alone about it.

I'v got a .356 Marlin barrel I need an action for next and a 38/40 1889 half together on the bench & a 51 336 35 Rem project. I hope it never ends.

[kevin in nh]

Winchester 64, 2-71s, Marlin, and below is my favorite 71 Standard Long Tang...what a shooter!

[OJ]

Great collections - I'm a little on the short side number-wise -

BL 22 rimfire -



Winchester 94s in 30-30 -









And this orphan waif Winchester 95 in 30-06 I picked up from an estate - NIB, unfired, with manual - at a price I won't divulge because it could lead to my being put into the slammer for stealing -





My guess is I'm not getting any sympathy for being so deprived - I also have a wife who gave me the last two for birthday gifts !!



We all have our cross to bear -

[gimdandy]

Mrs. told me l had too , too many and l needed to get rid of some.
Once in a great while l miss her , but it passes.

[kimwcook]

I think some of you guys are robbing banks. On a serious note, really nice levers guys.

[Paladin]

I'm feeling inadequate.

Gotta ask; did the number of guns available determine the length of the rack, or did you have some limitation on space?
Nice lookin' rack!

[stretch]

Man, some of you boys have some right nice collections!

Griff,

The rack was made to fit a certain space at the Range. The old rack held 7, this one holds 15, but yes, more are available.
