Guess I've been out of the loop in terms of whats out there in guns nowadays. I actually laughed when I saw the photo of the Mossberg. I thought someone Photoshopped a spoof 'photo'. I was shocked to see that they actually make the thing :shock: As for the lever 'revolver' rifle, nothing surprises m...

Thanks guys. I did a little bit of reading on the forum earlier and it seems that each rifle has its own characteristics. I also had read about Nate Kiowa Jones and his DVD and work with 92s. Looks like I'll just have to try things out and see how it works for the particular rifle I get. Thought I'd...

Hi guys. I did a search and didnt quite find the answer to my question, so thought I'd ask you. I came across a very slightly used Rossi 92 with 16" barrel in 357 at a local gunshop recently. I often shoot 38 Special. Much of it is 158gr SWCHP +P out of S&W service type revolvers. Do you ga...

Not sure how USA Today gets their articles, but it looks like it was written by someone out of Iowa. I dont imagine there's a lot of anti gun sentiment in the middle of farm country. It was better balanced than most articles you read/see in mainstream 'news'. They never seem to point out that youre ...

My Dad, Lord rest his soul, had a Basset as a kid. He wanted another when we moved to a farm. Ole' Snoopy was about one of the dumbest dogs I've been around. He would not take directions and didnt seem to be able to learn much at all. My farmer uncle called him 'the b*tard hound' because he often ch...

Well I was never into cats or thought much about them at all. While growing up we had a few farm cats around the place to help keep the mice under control, but they were half wild and took care of themselves. I was more of a 'dog person' - ever since I was a boy. Well over the last couple of years a...

Ive only got a few leverguns (will have to do something about that situation). All but one of them is blued. One of my Marlin Guide Guns is stainless with laminate stock. I don't mind that at all, when up here in the Pacific NW it often rains a lot . I like blue & nice walnut - but have various ...

Youre more likely to be stuck by lightning than be a victim of a mass shooting. (Just look up the 10 year statistics). We don't run around trying to make laws to 'protect' us from being struck by lightning. And we don't go about banning those things which cause far higher numbers of deaths including...

Thanks for the welcome guys ! And also thank you for the conversation - which got into many levergun 'controversies' :D I've got a couple Win 94s - one pre and one post 64. I do have to say that the Winchester 94 is one of the nicest (if not the nicest) of my rifles to carry in the field. Where do y...

Hi guys - this is my first post here. I thought I'd ask all you long time levergun pros a question. Ive got a couple of Marlin 1895 Guide Guns that I got a year or two after they first came out. Also have a Model 39 lever .22. and a Model 93 in 32-40. Theyve been good, reliable rifles. Though Ive al...
