"a thousand or two buttplates off of guns"....you sure it wasn't "tons" or "truck loads"?

It has something to do with being located south of the equator, you know like how the whirlpools are reversed!!!

Any rifle with checkering that has seen a good bit of use will always have more wear on the forearm than the grip. It is the natural carrying spot. If the forearm didn't have more wear I would be wary. Looks like an honest old shooter to me.

The Feds out my way like to sweep a magnet over our waterfowl to make sure they were hit with steel.

My collection contains Whitneys to Winchesters, Marlins to Hepburns, but my WWII wall with a Garand, M1 carbine, and the Thompson...I think I'm good to go.

How about the resident chronic complainer got a job?

cowboykell

But you forget...this is the internet...and we are all experts here.

cowboykell

Give it a rest already....you're going to get high blood pressure.

cowboykell

Any cartridge that has been around for 130+ years....has to be better.

Here in North Dakota, I bet 3 people that spring wasn't coming this year....two of them have already paid me.

cowboykell

Great to see that there still are bargains at gunshows. Too bad about the receiver on the Colt, pretty much makes it a shooter grade.

cowboykell

You must be new to Gunbroker...the seller is always right. His gun, his rules...so just don't bid on it.

cowboykell

I have a few old rifles that are over bored but have tight chambers. In the old days of black powder and soft lead the bullet would bump up. An over-sized hard cast bullet would never chamber so back to the round ball method. After determining the groove diameter, I use the correct size bullet but h...

+1 Driftwood...if it ain't broke don't fix it.

cowboykell

Not this again.

cowboykell

You'll never catch me whining about my car broke down, my dog died, my wife left me, my girlfriend is pregnant!! That's the kind of thing I share with my friends, family, or neighbors if I need to...not some forum on the internet.

cowboykell

Be careful what you wish for.

cowboykell

Could be worse....he could have stated " No sales to California."

cowboykell

Bad case of cabin fever?

cowboykell

Now that's the way to carry a rifle in a scabbard. Also, they must be good horsemen on well trained horses......no spurs !!!

cowboykell

No condition, too much pitting...$1500.00 is too much. I own five, all in different calibers, so I have bought and sold a few Bisleys.

cowboykell

Quality bullets of that size are easily available and very inexpensive to buy at local gunshows. I cast for my gong and silhouette rifles, but spend too much time hunting and shooting to mess around with the little bullets.

cowboykell

I never crimp or resize my brass. Shoot, clean, reload, and thumb seat bullet. The brass is never worked, no need to anneal. My accuracy has never suffered.

cowboykell

SEEMED TO BE MORE OF A DISTRACTION THAN AN ASSET.

cowboykell

The side of the top tang that is covered by the stock should have a serial number.

cowboykell

Lucky for you that you didn't win the sharps.

cowboykell

Only 38-40s and 44-40s had the trapdoor for the wooden cleaning rod. The rod was too large for a 32-20 bore so therefore no need for a trapdoor. $1500.00 would be my guess.

cowboykell

Pin on top is another sight point, will make your rifle shoot lower. The original sights were "gold-washed" ...made them easier to see in poor light.

cowboykell

I can see from your "folk art" rifle that originality doesn't bother you, but I won't buy a quality Winchester without a call to Cody.

cowboykell

Checkering isn't factory, that maybe why no bids yet.

cowboykell

Any one re-invent the wheel too?

cowboykell

Economy can't be too bad when a 40-65 brings this kind of money - www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=207083400

The first series of 1876s were chambered in 45-75 only so no reason to stamp caliber. The first model 1873 was chambered in only 44-40 and had no caliber designation either. You have an early issue '76. Does it have a thumb print dust cover or possibly no dust cover at all?

cowboykell

Very generous, but why not sell the rifle and donate to a worthwhile charity? Anyone on Leverguns has a computer and internet access, they don't need a nearly free rifle. Merry Christmas.

cowboykell

Have 2 Arctic Cats...they're like a Timex...take a lickin' and keep on tickin'.

Here in the Dakotas the 38-70 and 40-70 go for a lot more than the 45 cals. I have a few rifles from Bill Goodman but have sent half of them back. He tends to overlook some flaws. Most of his guns have "fine aged blue" whatever the heck that means. He does give a 3 dayer with no poblems.

cowboykell

The title of your topic reminded me of an old rhyme... Tired of hamburger, tired of steak. Caught a chill last night, too tired to shake. Tired of taxes, tired of hard luck On a date last night, too tired too tired.

cowboykell

45 x 2.1 is 45-70, 45 x 2.4 is 45-90....what is a 2.3 ?

cowboykell

Don - I'm taking my Ballard Model 9 Union Hill in 32-40 to Mark M's ranch at Baker tomorrow. I thought you might be jumping the gun on goats because Montana season doesn't start until Sat.....then I remembered you're shooting Wyo. goats.

cowboykell

I don't buy without a 3 day inspection.

cowboykell

Clayton Two Bears told this joke at the sale barn today so I think it's OK to repeat. What's the difference between John Wayne and Jack Daniels ????? Jack Daniels is still killing Indians.

cowboykell

Shucks...on first glance I thought those were Montana wood ticks!!

cowboykell

Wish I could, but the heat last week really dried down the corn. Going to be chopping not shooting.

cowboykell

I have had great results with Woodleigh bullets on critters from impala to eland.

cowboykell

There are two seasons in North Dakota....Winter is here and winter is near !!

cowboykell

No registration.

I live southwest of Bismarck/Mandan. Western North Dakota is fantastic!!!! Eastern part is OK. They should have split the Dakotas into West Dakota and East Dakota. The trouble with South Dakota...you have to speak very slowly when you converse with them.

cowboykell

One of my favorite cartridges. I have a Win 1886, Win 1885, Marlin 1895, and Colt Lightning all in 38-56. Did I say it is one of my favorite cartridges?

cowboykell

Who in the world is Terry Murbach and should I really care?

cowboykell

I have never aged a pork. Save the loin chops and grind the rest with vension for all kinds of sausage , brats, jerky, slim jims.......
