Steve, your plan has no flaws at all. Im 63, my dad gave me his original deluxe 71 when I was 18, that's 45 years ago. # 40XX, an early one. I love that rifle, killed many deer and one elk in Oregon. When the 1886's came out in 1986, I got the octagon barreled Lo grade model first, 479.00 brand new....

Kirk, I wouldn't be surprised if a new Dirty Harry movie could come out, with your revolver being the Star of the movie. That is a cannon Inspector Callahan would be proud to carry. I'm glad for you.

brucew44guns

I'm glad you mentioned the support of your wife in matters like this. I too have a very understanding wife, it makes all the difference in the joy you feel when they smile with you, rather than fuss with you. Good on you both for this nice buy.

I bought a new Guide Gun, un-ported in 45:70, in summer of 2007. Paid 462.00 for it brand new. I'm pleased to own it, and glad I chose unported and 45:70.

I looked at the sawed off Marlin in 25:20, and noted that the serial number was 2781XX. I pulled my own 1894 Marlin in 25:20 out of the safe, lo and behold it was # 2783XX. Probably only 200 rifles apart, or thereabouts. Mine has the right length octagon barrel though, and case hardened reciever. No...

Just reading you fellows replies after watching this video, makes me proud to be associated with you. There's more common sense, more keen perception, more of everything I believe in being said by you guys than what I could find anywhere else. YES indeed, I wish this young lady was my daughter, or m...

I would have thought a guy like you could have persauded them for a bigger settlement on those guns, looks like chump money here to me.

Maybe we worry too much!!! Heard something on the radio today that Hillary is quoted as saying "If Im the next president, big changes are coming---AND, the Federal Govt will become much more involved in the National Economy". (paraphrase). Oh goodie!, think how much that will help us, as w...

I don't know when it started happening, but the re-writing of our national history has had major impacts on our kids lives. The history of our famous leaders, George Washington, Abe lincoln, McCarthur, Patton, Ronald Reagan and many countless others of their stripe, has been turned into a bunch of h...

We cut our teeth on 45 caliber pistols, then big bore rifles, pretty soon everything has to be BIG,-----thankfully. Long live grandpas.

There is nothing much better than reading the words of a very respectful son, as he tells an important part of the story of his dads life. I think your dad would feel honored here in this setting, as you told us of him, his rifle, and showed us how much you admired him. Thanks, I know now I will rem...

It's too bad the Hill Billarys', Kerry's, Schumer's, McCain's, Carolyn McCarthy's and 10,000 more just like their ILK can't know, and feel, and experience, the pleasure it is to own some treasured firearms like I see on this table. The pleasure and contentment just knowing you're a free man to do th...

Thanks Pete, I never saw a kit available like this before, what do I know?, I'm a fuel hauler? I'll give it a shot. Need to repair a postage stamp size hole where the cylinder cradles. I'll glue in some similar plastic and fix, then spray this stuff on.

brucew44guns

Can any of you direct me to a company that sells the insides of a Smith&Wesson walnut presentation case. It's a blue molded insert that the revolver sets in within the box, and has a soft felt like texture that's easy on the gun while being so stored. I had hoped mine wasn't the only worn out on...

Ever since I saw the event of Sarah Brady walking up and embracing Bill Clinton on TV in a nice warm hug in front tof the whole world, I knew this broad was trouble, not only then, but would be on into the future. She was Kerry's buddy too. What ever happened to the stories circulating a short few y...

Quite a few years ago I went to a gun show in Albany, Oregon. It was late Sunday afternoon, when prices are sometimes more flexible. I found an old 94 Win, had a price of 140.00 on it. I picked it up and looked. It was slick from carrying it hunting for years, hardly any blue left. It was fairly dir...

This topic brings up an old question, how long does ammo last? I have some WWII '06 stuff that was stored in a cave someplace for decades in wooden Winchester boxes of 1,000 rounds, They shoot fine in a Garand. I hear others say that 1 year old .22's get bad, I never had that trouble, but how can yo...

brucew44guns

Your girlfriend may just figure she can't afford to let you come with her anymore!!! She probably had a list made out to fit the budget, now look what happened!!. Good on you though. Gotta get those priorities in there.

brucew44guns

We have all giggled and noticed, that when shooting at game---we hardly notice the recoil, as compared to bench shooting. In this case, it proves that this saying isn't always the truth, or the facts of the matter. Im sure glad you popped the bull, he would have closed that gap pretty fast perhaps, ...

brucew44guns

No shame in buying a nice 94 like this. I'd like to travel for awhile with Victor and just have opportunity to buy guns he turns down or rejects, he sure gets some dandies for sure. I'll probably have to buy one from him some day just to be in the club. He told me recently that he's going to sell a ...

I was witness one time to a lube guy at a station, he forgot to put the drain plug back in. He poured in 5 qts. of oil, all of it going on the floor. It was noticed before he started the engine. So they raised the car back up, and used a dust pan to scoop up most of the oil off the floor, pouring it...

I think Colby is only 4 hours or a little less from Salina. Good reason to play hookie and take a ride to Colby!! Good luck.

Joe is thinking today. If we lose our gun rights to the likes of those who desire to take them, the far reaching implications are ominous for our very way of life, maybe including our lives. Who wants to live like the people in most gun free societies? The list of candidates I look at every day like...

brucew44guns

As I watched Mel Gibson play William Wallace again this morning, I could feel his rage, because my rights are being violated in different ways than his was, yet with the same degree of resentment as he felt, leading up to his finally taking matters closer to hand. How does a politician think he is g...

maybe the gun is not loaded, it would be safe that way?

My inlaws lived for years at lakeport, 35 miles away. Miles and miles of forest lands and public lands there. Short drive to the redwoods and the Ocean. If you can't keep venison on the table there, you have a problem. you'll do good there i'm sure.

brucew44guns

Well DKM, all you need now is a 58 Corvette with 4,000 original miles on it, and your very own 747 Jet Liner. No one is going to feel sorry for you if you're stuck with these fine rifles for all eternity!!! Best to you with them, it's nice to own nice!! Bruce

brucew44guns

you guys are quick to help a poor lever gunner! Thanks to you all, I'll just wait a awhile, maybe one of our guys will want out of one right here on the forum. Bruce

brucew44guns

All this talk about 307's this morning has got me breathing hard again to own one. New one on the GunBroker starting bid is 995, is this too much? Maybe wait awhile and better deal come by? I never shopped for one before, and know they cost pretty high, but hate to get ripped.

brucew44guns

I just went to Gunbroker, Item # 89843784, that rifle ought to make a 307 guy squeal with sighs of want. Brand new one in the box. Looks like his reserve price is going to exceed the opening bid price of 995.00, sure nice one though.

brucew44guns

I just got my Browning 71 carbine and rifle out of the safe. They're still new and unfired, and I was lucky in that my wife bought the carbine for me with her money quite a few years ago, and was fortunate to get a really beautiful piece of wood on both of them, for the LO grade models. There is no ...

My stomach gets kind of queezy, I just want to gag, at the thought of this scenario. Those gun hating mongrels will go after us with a passion if given new opportunity. I hope a lot of good people won't err and vote this way.

brucew44guns

I would bet those lever guns are happy too!, glad to stand in a new spot. Good for you!

brucew44guns

One big thing I worry about that could happen, we saw how John Kerry was saying things to indicate that he wanted us totally committed to the U.N.. If UN troops and henchmen were given the task of searching out guns and gunowners, they would be mostly foreigners who hate us anyhow, with no sympathy ...

Lately I have been watching the "Military" channel on TV. I am utterly amazed at the high tech weapons that exist now, to detect and stop an enemy. Weapons that can see you through your walls on a dark night, knowing exactly where you are in the house. There are relatively small arms, that...

brucew44guns

I always considered a new, or "new to me' rifle coming home with me, as if it was a new family member being added. Nice job finding this gem, Im glad for you. Bruce

brucew44guns

I'm not a reloader, but hope to get started someday. I know very little about custom ammo, or anything much about bullet construction. All I know is, I've always shot Winchester Silver Tips in my .348, in all my .30-.30's, and standard flat nosed ammo in .35 and 45-70's that I have, if I had a .45 l...

A lot of guys would be shocked to see how many guns they would have for free, if they added up a pack of cigs per day, or 4 or 5 beers a day, or both, for a prolonged period of time. I used to put down 3 or 4 or 5 beers a day all week, then a little more on weekends. You figure the cost of that for ...

brucew44guns

Good to see a little "red-neck-ism" spoke out here now and then, makes life interesting. I like the idea of those mounts at the airport. Can you just imagine?

brucew44guns

Everyman needs a good utility rifle, one that didn't cost your kid going to college. Good bore, good wood, good deal!!! Happy for you.

Truth is, even our Government is totally filled up with pond scum commie liberals, who have no conception of what harm they do to our Republic and way of life by the way they vote and legislate. I have had a hard time believing it was in the interest of the NRA membership, for our top managers to su...

One of the best I've noticed in a long time was "Open Range". "True Grit" probably ranks my highest, I liked the Duke a lot.

I was born in the LA area, stayed there till I was 30. After 9 years as an adult driving a gasoline tanker on LA freeways 15 hours a day, I said enough is enough and got out of there. That was 1974. No way in hell would I have ever moved back, nor do I even want to visit there.

brucew44guns

I guess I''ve tended to shoot targets with less expensive ammo, and hunt with the premium stuff. But of late, I have been persuaded to have good confidence in the Power Shocks for my 30:30's, good and excellent ammo for deer hunting as we do here in my part of Kansas. They don't cost a small fortune...

I can't even imagine the BS that would roll downhill if a UPS driver left a firearm on a front porch, no signature, no adult to accept, and some deranged lunatic got hold of it and walked into a school or mall looking for mischief of some kind. Once the story unfolded on the nightly news, Sarah Brad...

brucew44guns

The only odd caliber I own, and it's not so odd unless you look at the cost of factory ammo, is the .348. As of now I'm not a reloader, so I've tried to stick with popular calibers, maybe that can change someday. I too passed up older Winchesters at sales due to obsolete calibers.

My dad bought a model 71 deluxe for about 100 dollars brand new as I recall him saying, been awhile back. But wouldn't it be nice to go into a gun store and see 3 or 4 model 94's in different calibers, 2 or 3 1886's in various calibers, and some real nicely fitted model 92's? at prices that proved t...

brucew44guns

My first lever was a long tang model 71, serial No. 40XX, an early bird, that was 1962. My latest was a new Marlin 308MX. If they start making a good and decent 94 again, who knows what's next?

brucew44guns

Thing is, about a collection like this, the value on every one of them has most likely increased since you've held them. I bought a 3 1/2 inch S&W model 27-2 back in 1991 in Rapid City for 280.00. I see them on the Broker now for 600, 700, 800, for nice like mine. How can you go wrong with these...
