Dont have any centerfire bolt action rifles.
Got a couple autoloaders but no single shots either.

Rob those who earn to pay for the up keep of the lazy. Typical Socialist thinking. I dont agree with most of what Junior comes out with but thats one I do. Its not robbery, its taxation & if a guy who'll never make $250,000 a year workings gotta pay then a guy that collects $250,000 in dividend...

When does your season start?

Last sat.

Spent the day wandering around a few places I hunt.

Saw a couple deer & one doe that seemed to want to get stuck. I let walk tho, twice. Its too warm & my game fridge is dead.

Face facts, guys. Hillary will soon be President Hillary. What you should do is make sure your local and state politicians are pro-gun. Around here local and state anti-gun candidates don't get elected. Why shouldn't we want pro gun federal politicians, if they even exist? I doubt Hillary will get ...

Thats a real nice sounding expedition I'd say.

I used a heavy crimp using the Lee FCD.

Ditto except I was closer to 1700 fps.

I find it pretty easy just drawing the blade across a stone or steel as if slicing off a thin shaving. My knives are almost always shaveing sharp & when theyre not its mostly just a few swipes away. I do like the newer diamond products alot. I'v got a few diamond bench top stones 2 16" roun...

If you form your cases from 30/30 brass you can use Hornady 170 grain jacketed SP & use the cannelure. Real 32/40 cases are too long to get a proper oal with them. I think Speer makes a 170 grain bullet for it too I wouldn't recomend useing 32 special data as, like Hobie just said, the 32/40 has...

Lemme tell ya, anytime a foreign national is arrested, there is a LOT of paperwork to do and hoops in which to jump through. You MUST contact the foreign consulate and you MUST allow the arrestee to talk to them. It's a big pain in the butt. :cry: Thats why we're in the mess we are in in this count...

What Joe said.
Theres lots of things that could be effected if it got hot enough.

Leverdude

What a load of bull snot. Does the technology to do that even exist?

Leverdude

I dont much like the ones that grab the tube myself. Never saw a Winchester part but the Marlin forend tip & barrel band studs are riveted in place & plenty strong. I dont think theres enuff wood in the forend of an 86 to accept a screw. I'd be afraid of splitting or pulling it out. I'v seen...

Leverdude

OK, lets get a bit specific. "IF" my 1894 Cowboy 20" octagon barrel, had been made say in 1895, what would the most likely sights been on that? Like those on the 93. I have an 1889, direct predecessor to the 1894 that came wearing about the same sights. The front was shorter than the...

Just did it this morning. I'm preparing for archery deer which opens here next sat. My & my son went to check a stand last week & theres a downed limb next to the base of my tree with a very busy yellow jacket nest! :shock: Went by this morning & watched where they went in & soaked t...

Leverdude

Joe, Older Marlin carbines had the front dovetailed & dressed up so it looked like one piece. This ones a second variation I believe. The earliesat had a block dovetailed like this with a blade pinned into a slot. This is a pre ww1 1894 barrel http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a186/Leverdude/Gun...

Thanks OI!

Ain't sure, but Numrich lists one for the Marlin 375, and the detail shows it's the same as the 1895. Didn't know there were different width hammers. Mine wears a scope and needs the spur, otherwise... Griff, The pre saftey hammers were slimmer than the newer ones by about 1/8" or so. The old ...

I think speed of reloading was just the iceing on the cake. Cartriges are superior to loose powder & ball in many ways. Portability & weather resistance are just 2 that come to mind.

Leverdude

Is it just me or do the screws look dished out? Could it just be polished in the white?
I never heard of a stainless 94 but I'm not a Winchester fella.

Leverdude

Thanks Hobie!

Tried 3 times to respond to the fellow asking about erasing checkering.

Leverdude

OK I got you Joe. Your wording was fine. I started to just explain the nature of the "jam" & kept going, forgetting the conditions of your perticular problem. My bad. :oops: Thinking on it harder it sounds like your lever was stuck in the rocker. Once the lifter lifts all the way the l...

Leverdude

Joe, Just a note. You said something about the Marlin jam & a round under the carrier. Thats not right. What happens with the jam is the lifter lets in a second round or just gets stuck under the rim of the next one not letting the lifter move up & jaming up the works good. You already notic...

The only thing the school did wrong was let them folks get killed. Nothing more nothing less. If they allowed them to protect themselves they'd have no culpability. Once they disarmed them they took responsability for their saftey & let them get killed. I think theyre directly responsible. Theyd...

Thanks for the link. I put it in my favorites. Now to find some one to do the wood work. I forget where you are Joe but if you contact this fellow he may be able to help you out. He goes by "Shum8" on the Marlin Owners site. http://marlinowners.com/board/privmsg.php?mode=post&u=1029 G...

Aint much left to say except it stinks.

Anybody have a link to the school shooting the principal went to his car, got his gun & stopped the jerk? I have a couple places that story may do some good.
I forget which one it was.

Leverdude

Reason I asked about the checkering is you cant just sand & refinish, checkerings not something I'd try myself. Not yet anyway & removeing the checkering from the buttstock to match might not work so good. I'v seen pictures where it looked good but judging by my own guns its hard to fathom. ...

Leverdude

Lay all three on your bed, close your eyes & pick the one you touch first.

I hate these kinda decisions myself & often bring several guns to a hunt because I cant choose.

That's ok. You can make up for it by letting me have a shot if you ever decide to sell it!

I'll make mention in my will that if either of my boys wants to sell it after I croak they should look up you or your descendants to give you first refusal,

Sorry bout the keyboard.

Joe, I dont know of anyone who makes thin ones unless your talking 90% inletted stuff. I forget if the CBC's are checkered. If theyre not you could do it yourself easy enough or if you dont want to any gunsmith or woodworker can. I think you'll likely need to strip the butstock & refinish it wit...

Leverdude

I stand corrected! Shoulda went & looked at one before opening my yap, but this was much easier.

Leverdude

Thank you Joe, You asked MM93 if these were safe with smokeless. I use smokeless in all my old guns but dont use jacketed bullets unless its a smokeless barrel. I think its safe as long as you do it with a measure of common sense. Most of the data for the old BP calibres seems to take this into cons...

Of guns after wipeing them down to be put away from an afternoons shooting. Had a small get together with a few CT members of another forum. Was a great day! :) Anyway heres some pictures. 39M, 1895, 36. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a186/Leverdude/Gun%20pics/100_2672.jpg 1893's, 32/40 top, 38/5...

Leverdude

Joe,
I did get that 89 I mentioned the other day. Kinda beat up but it works as is & gives me something else to tinker with.

Leverdude

You think he chopped the barrel Vall? I think it mighta just ended up in the hands of an idiot. Maybe it is cut & he had so much trouble cutting a dovetail for the sight he fired up the welder.

Actually in the third pic it looks like the stud is in there. I dunno what to think.

Leverdude

Like Buffboy said Joe, they had the mosel 1889 in 44/40, 38/40, 32/20 & a few 25/20. They had an 1888 as well in the same calibres but I dont have one.........yet. They were top eject but otherwise work about the same as the 89, 94 & the rest as far as locking up. Heres mine part way done.Ca...

Thats gotta be unconstitutional. Heck, wether they call it registration or not thats about what buying a gun legally amounts to.
