I have a Marlin 1895 converted to 50AK and love it! Pretty much shoots one hole groups at 50yrd using XS sights. The load I use is 60.5 grains of Benchmark CCI large rifle primers and Cast Performance 525 grain Hard cast bullets. It also has flawless feeding. I have not chronographed it yet as I was...

Thank you so far for the imput

Like in my post above I'm trying to post pictures but it says my pictures have too many pixels. I'm using photobucket, does anybody have a fix? Thanks

I have a sxs 16 gauge Bernardilli shotgun and am trying to get a idea of it's value. I have some pics but when I try to post this site says 800 pixels or less. I guess I have more

Does anybody make a bolt peep sight for the "Jap" model 71? Can a original peep be fitted to the new guns? Thanks

Well after owning lever guns since I was sixteen I finally bought a lever .22! A Gent had one fer sale over on the Ruger forum site with pictures. What a piece of wood , absolutely beautiful :D The trigger feels good and I can't find a blemish on wood or steel. I would like to post some pictures, do...

foxtrapper

Thanks Guys . I'll post pictures when it arrives.

foxtrapper

They used that rifle on the "Outdoor" channel Cowboys show. The Gent had it in 45 Casull and used it on a Bison, with one shot success !

foxtrapper

Finally bought my first lever .22 :D I was looking for a 1897 cowboy octagon barrel but they are nowhere to be had[ please don't tell me you have one for sale] Looks like a nice piece of wood :!: Does anybody know if you can install a Wild West trigger in the 39a :?: http://i111.photobucket.com/albu...

Here's my Marlin 1895 in 50AK done by Gary Reeder. The rifle shoots and feeds great! He had to sell me on the muzzle break but even with it the recoil is stout :shock: It also will prolong the life of your rifle's stock and scope if you decide to go that way. http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb35/...

I have a couple of custom revolvers that should be done this year

If the Gods are willing a Freedom arms premier 83 in 44 mag, 6" barrel ,trigger job and round butted grip frame

foxtrapper

My favorite right now is my .510 GNR .I say right now because I have a couple more in the works

Something tells me a Ruger Single Six converted to a bisley 38 Super five shot will move to the front of the line

My 1894P has factory drilled and tapped holes on the side of the receiver for sights. I installed a Williams firesight sight set on mine.

Anybody do this? A post below where someone was looking to "custom" up his Marlin Cowboy I directed him to Clements website. I had his basic upgrade done a couple of years ago and while reading his services he now glassbeds the stock. It wasn't part of the package when I had my done. So I'...

I had Dave Clements do his "Basic" Marlin upgrade to my Marlin CB. Shoots and feeds flawlessly . http://www.clementscustomguns.com/rifleservices.html

All went well. The picture I downloaded with the parts named ,helped greatly. I was following the detailed instruction from the Ar15 sight and a couple of question were posed. Does it matter what side of the receiver you start the hammer and trigger pins? It also had in sequence that the trigger gro...

foxtrapper

Thanks to all. Let's see, roll pin punches ,no roll pin punches needed ,clean room and small child :D . Got it! The AR15 .com sight has some good instruction with video. Well here I go! While I got you ,I'm having trouble accessing this sight . It's taking a long time to load when I can get on . Any...

Hey cas I have stripped lowers and parts kits that need to merge

I want to ask you if you could give me some pointers. Thanks

foxtrapper

Yea I posted that awhile ago. I hunted there 25 years ago and had a great time. It seemed a odd suggestion but maybe they equate levers with a newbies first gun . Who knows. But it's a great place!

foxtrapper

Nice yote ! Ok lets hear about the gear used ,anchor system ,set and lure

Man using a longspring in a land set= lots of work

Good job!!

foxtrapper

If you want a neat contest target try this out. Handgun closer ,rifle a little further say 7yrd and 15 yrds. A two X four standing vertically is the target, make it a team of two shooters shooting together trying to cut the board in two. Wining team is determined by least amount of time needed to sh...

I have the Burris 2.75 power scout scope .Bright ,clear and less than $200.00

foxtrapper

Read the sticky ,oh boy. If someone can give a hand. I would like the 4 cartridge tool all the same dia. for a Ruger single six. Am I right that its $78.00 post paid? This setup will let me size 4 rds at a time correct?

foxtrapper

Yep the "NEW" 475 Turnbull is a good cartridge when it was devolved years ago by Gary Reeder as the 476GNR

That came out great

I'm going to send in my Marlin1894P for the Metallife finish as soon as I get it rechambered to 429GNR

Old Savage this is the place.http://www.huntwildhill.com/index.htm It's a real first class place but the levergun comment is nuts!

Thanks don't know why I included the 1895 in my original query. I went to the Marlin website and I found that the 1894 in 44 mag is 1 in 38"

I've hunted with a wildboar hunting outfit up in Vermont 20 years ago. Great place, lotsa game ,good folks. My daughter has been asking to go boar hunting, so I looked up the place on the web. Same people running the place but the prices seem to have went up since my last visit :roll: I open the FAQ...

foxtrapper

Just to be sure. The rate of twist in the micro groove barrels is 1 in 38" correct? The Ballard rifling that is being produced now in the 1894's and the 1895's is still 1 in 38" ,yes?

foxtrapper

I brought back bear meat from New Brunswick Canada the outfitter gave me a transportation tag. Showed my tag at customs no problems

foxtrapper

I'm back. Like I said there are plenty of how- to videos. Here is one link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtHKiRdtEGc Good luck and be careful

foxtrapper

Check Youtube I have seen a couple of detailed videos on making BP there. If I recall ,they used a mortar and pestal and it was time consuming . I'll see if I can find the link and post it here. I'll be right back

foxtrapper

Does the tool work on copper clad bullets?

foxtrapper

Take her to the pool. Olympian Mike Phelps had the same condition

Ah to Bogart , hog ,consume by oneself, no sharing

If you need dies buy the Hornady 50AK Less than $70.00 bucks where RCBS about $240.00

Over at Davidson's I see they offer a Marlin Trapper in 30-30 and 45/70. Straight grip laminate stocks with day glow sights. The answer to how long a Trapper barrel is supposed to be is, according to the new Marlin, is 16 1/4" :D I haven't been on Davidson's website since the format change, me ...

Take some emory cloth and lay it flat on your work surface. Sand the bottom of the sight,by gently passing it over the emory cloth. Doing it this way you will never have to adjust the side angles and you know the bottom will always be flat

I have a Sheridan that I got as a kid in the 1970's . Recently I discovered that the rifle will not hold a air charge.

They went old school, riding horses wearing sixguns and dusters The rifle he used was a Winchester 1894 in the greatest buffalo cartridge of all time.... the 30-30 :shock: They stalked to within 90 yrds and using semi-buckhorn sights fired. He was aiming six inches behind the horn . The Buff did a n...
