Please don't use water on your new holster. Wrap your unloaded handgun in a heavy plastic bag, like a heavy freezer bag, and push it down into the holster. Leave it over night. If your holster is a pancake style holster you could wear it around the house for a few hours. Pancake holsters tend to pul...

Re: Lets shoot the breeze about your first lever action shot

The first deer rifle I ever bought was an old cut down Enfield in 303 British. I swapped it for a Winchester 94, 30-30. Killed my first buck with that '94. Wish I still had it. Now I've got eleven lever actions. Two are '94s, a SRC born in 1915 and a trapper born in 1953. I love me some lever actions!
