So my question(s) are; is dyslexia a physical brain ailment, or a mental ailment? The short answer: Dyslexia is most likely a neurotic connectivity disorder. Thanks to recent research, there's scientific proof that a dyslexic person’s brain is normal and healthy. A dyslexic person's brain takes lon...

That WAS fun!!! Those folks did a wonderful job of creating it. Thanks for the post!

Looks like I might have to get a rig like that for my Sportster.... I agree WAAAYYY cool. I reckon he's good to go.........sheriffs sittin in his car right beside it and it not paying a lick of attention to it. Or, maybe's he's makin' sure they stay in the holsters while the owners away!!! :evil: Wh...

Since when did sanity have anything to do with collecting S & W' s.? If that was a requirement we'd all be in the looney bin.

Beautiful old Smith with marvelous workmanship. I'm glad you got it back.

In the first picture he's kinda got that hangdog look, like, I think I mighta' done something I shouldn't have! Heck, I was just going for a swim, what's wrong with that?

He sure turned out to be a dandy looking feller.

Congratulations !! Been retired for 7 yrs........best job I've ever had.

You'll love it!

Daisyman

It's pretty hard to pay too much for one that nice!

Plenty of guys have paid that much for one of them plastic and aluminum black spray paint thingy rifles. Now that's a beaut. I'd be proud to own it.

Ya done good!

Daisyman

Happy Anniversary!! 56 is a long time....

Daisyman

Sweet!!

Can't have too many levers. Question...that IS and octagon bbl, isn't it? Hard to tell in the light. Thought all the cowboys were!?

Daisyman

Been out all day, thus the late reply. I hate to disappoint you, Six, but I don't own a big bore Ruger. I have 2 single sixes (1955, 1957), a single six magnum only(1959), and a Super single six (1967), but no Blackhawks or Redhawks. :| I also have a Mark 1, bull bbl, target pistol (1977). Irv

Daisyman

I'd really like to be there. What a show!!! It'd be nice to put a face to the names I see on here, and have a good levergun chat!!

Irv

Daisyman

Yep, those old model Rugers can be very addicting. It's apples and oranges between the old models and the new models. The actions are so smooth and distinct.....no stupid warning lettering stamped all over....better fit and finish......plus you get more bucks from them each year instead of the othe...

Daisyman

I agree, picture 1, very nice rifle, gorgeous day,

picture 2, even better rifle picture, and a view all of us flatlanders can only dream about,

picture 3, um, 12 inches of wet show on the last day of March,

yikes!! There's something that just ain't right about that!!

If that Indian is called a scout, maybe it oughta be OD? :oops: i had a 1949 Indian with side shift/suicide clutch...that was in 1959. since then i lost track of how many motorcycles i owned. last one was my beloved BMW K75. i had to give up the motorcycles due to an injury. i still have the 'yen' ...

That looks good to me. A really cool ride. I guess I'd have to see a black one to compare it to but I do like the silver one. Maybe it's because I'm used to it. :roll: 2003 Anniversary Edition 1200 XL with a bunch of goodies so that it dynos at 95 hp. Plenty for a 71 yr old. :lol: :lol: To be truthf...

Daisyman

Ha! Good one. I knew there was something wrong with all the ones mentioned. Thanks for the clarification.

Daisyman

Thanks to all for the good information. I read that whole attachment and I wonder if O.S.O.C. ever got an answer from Marlin on his rifle.

Irv

Daisyman

What a hoot, I'm still chuckling on that one!!

Daisyman

I love my Navy Arms Rossi. I don't know if someone worked on it before I got it, but it is butter smooth and shoots really nice, never misses a round. Mine is case colored in .45LC. with a 24" octagon bbl and walnut stocks, and the fit and finish is really good. :D I added a couple coats of sto...

I mentioned to them that he hand prints looked a lot like the size of their hands, and as...

Daisyman

Wow, you do some NICE work! Anyone would be proud to own those.

Daisyman

I'm sorry I can't answer your question, but I would like to know how you like your Chiappa? Does it function well? What caliber is it? I was thinking about getting an 86 but the reviews were mixed, so that is the reason for the inquiry. It looks like there's a good fit on the wood to the tangs. Some...

You have my sympathy on the loss of your friend.....a good friend is hard to find. RIP

I traded a Marlin 336W ( the model with the hardwood stocks) for this in 2009. I never was really sure this was a Texan, but I called it that even though it isn't marked "Texan". It was made in 1975. From what I could read, it matched the description of one. I always liked the square lever...

Daisyman

Does this count?? A .22 cal. Webley and Scott made from 1924 to 1935. And it IS a top break.....sort of.

Gentlemen, has anyone shot blackpowder .44-40 loads in a Rossi 92? I have some cast lead bullets coming and the idea has occurred to me. I know I wouldn't get proper velocities, not being able to put as much BP in a case as they used to - (I have Starline brass) but what about using black powder in...

Me too!! Neuter with a .357 jhp would be good sentence. No way to pass on bad genes.

I really didn't think I'd want want of those but that one would be just fine. I just don't see those for sale here in the Midwest.

I'm going to have to go to a pump gun forum, I'm waaay to slow for this one. I don't get it.

Edit; looked up Epipen, (never heard of it) reread post.......er......er.....Oh doh, yup, yup, Junior Bear here, I think I got a headache. Durr

Daisyman

Does it make a difference in the caliber? I've got a Beretta Stampede in 45 LC I could measure, but I'm not sure that would be relevant to what you want. Couldn't different manufacturers make each to their own specs?

Bolt cut? Sorry, I guess I'm not following. Bolt sounds like a rifle.

Daisyman

I don't have a Remllin, but I do have lots of older Marlins. I would seem to me that making a rifle that you could go out and buy an old one and lay it on your bench at the factory, take some measurements and make one like it would not be that hard. I mean we're not talking rocket science here. They...

That's an American Classic that was talked about here a week or two ago, right? and was a dead on shooter? I went to a gun show last night that had a pile of handguns and not one of those in sight.

Welcome to the leverguns. I think you're a gonner now. It's a hopeless addiction! Now that you're hooked, you sure started with the right one, a 71 in anything is hard to top!

Irv

Amen!

Does it have a flat band holding the magazine tube to the barrel or an extended forearm? The only had the flat band for a short time and collectors like the extended forearm. Me included! To my knowledge a WW2 period gun was made before and after the war. Production was suspended for civilian guns t...

I like that Bisley, love that color casing... I might have to try one those some day. Massachusetts, (mercy, it took me four tries to spell it),

it sounds like a place Hitlery would like to preside over. Maybe we could all take up a collection and move you out of there.

Daisyman

Those are some of the longest scopes I've ever seen.

A very nice collection, indeed!!

Daisyman

:shock: They sure are mighty proud of those. Yipe, you're right about that! It makes that $350 case colored Navy Arms 92 I had on here a month or two ago seem like a giveaway. I bought it at a gun show in September. I'm a happy camper. :D HOWEVER, that $8000 deluxe 73 sure is a beauty to behold. :s...

Daisyman

That's very nice....hard to tell it from a Winnie 92 from the pictures. I really like my Navy Arms, Rossi 92 in 45LC I had on here a while back. Smooth as glass and feeds everything.
You done good.

Daisyman

Good trade! Plastic and aluminum going for a lever gun and a Ruger.
