Well, The fellow that had the 14 never shot it and was told that it did not fire... So I took the bolt assembly out of the rifle and cleaned it from old grim and gummed up oil. It was a bit sticky when pumping the action before but runs so smooth now after the cleaning and oiling. The action locks u...

Fellow I got these from said he had no more use for the 30 rems since I bought the gun,,, so I assumed they all came from this one but the two shells (third from left and right above it) with the ring around them certainly look like possibly a different gun... Shell #2 from left was a slight dimple ...

smokenrust

I have a box of 30Rem that came with a Rem 14. I was looking at the primer strikes and wondered what caused the protruding ring around the dimple in two of them. 30 Rem s.JPG In the front row of bullets, the first one looks to be a light strike. The second one was a light strike but was fired and I ...

I had 3 of them Barlow jackknives, First one was solid on the end with Barlow cast in it, Lost that on the farm. The second one was a lighter stamping of BARLOW in it and the grip came off that one.. The third was a tin stamped end on it, cheaply made, lost that one too but was no big loss... Think ...

You can see ol Jules wasn't going without enough ammo for his rifle... At least 25 cartridges on the front side... Wonder if he carried any extra for his side arm...

smokenrust

Sheesh, you know that they know where it's safe.
Kinda makes it neat, don't it.
Nice pics, thank you for sharing them with us.

Thanks Hobie,
Now, do you know where these movies were possibly made?

Here's a pic that made me think about Vic, I wonder why..

That a classic silent movie type photo... The hanging painted canvas in the back, the cut off chunk of wood , the potted plant, and having to stand there still enough for 15 or thirty seconds because they didn't have flash other than a powder burn. The boots do have some wear on them and don't have ...

I have been searching the web for any info on Vic Allen that was an actor back in the 20's. Some westerns he played in, The Outlaw Dog. Actor. 1927. The Sonora Kid. Actor. 1927. Vic Dyson Pays. Actor. 1925 ... At present, all I find is he acted in several films and usually played under his name... C...

Hightime Owen, When you sign in, do you check the box that says. - "Log me on automatically each visit" and when you quit looking, do you log off or just hit the X in upper right corner? After I checked the box for "Log me on automatically each visit" , my problems quit and I do ...

Then offered him a try at shooting your little Browning... and slip a soda can in and amd let him plink that right while you snap that event on your cell phone ...

Where's them Pegasus wings and the unicorn's horns??

Next he will probably come up with the rocking deer ... for the wife.

What you have made so far looks real good.

smokenrust

It was a very good writing and truth to it all the way through.

smokenrust

Try it at 75 & 100 yards and see what it does... fifty seems to close.
Have fun with your new toy, looks good from here.

smokenrust

And you can try and kid us that you don't have any but we know better...

smokenrust

Maybe you can make yourself a flying unicorn horse to shoot from...

and propelled by the wind...hee-hee

smokenrust

Pitchy, that was Really good... Done on short notice too. Impressive.
But ,ya don't go shootin deer in the butt now do ya?

smokenrust

Pitch, they are soo coool... But I want to send a word of caution as you probably already know is that for the metal bladed ones that are to close to the ground, should be set out of reach of little kids and stupid dummies that might stick a hand into them. Now how about one of them whirligigs with ...

OS, Do you have any more history on that piece of glass?
That is a neat piece of glass, specially if it is the genuine article and not one of the newer repilications...
Wonder what it was like to be in a cabin where one of them were in use in that time period.

The last one is a 303 British? Wow... I didn't remember them looking exactly like that... but that was 45 years ago and carried it for two seasons. As for the glass, it is currently a desktop paperweight... Its prior life was spent upon the ocean waters, scattering light for those below... A deck pr...

smokenrust

They are empty cartridges... My guess is 45-70, 308, 338 Win or 330 Dakota, and a WSM that I don't know anything about. And the last one looks like an AI, maybe a 30-30 ? or possibly a 7.65? Now you can tell that those were just guesses...
OS, that is a pretty good picture from your phone.

smokenrust

I figured you guys would figure them out in no time at all... I kinda wished I had some oddball calibers that would have made you all guess for a few days. :) But alas I don't :( Thing in the picture is all of them run about the same ol ...well, the 308 was a bit taller. grouped by long necks, no ne...

smokenrust

Is that powder still ignitable after 43 years? I remember seeing one of them new. but that was a long time ago.

smokenrust

Question? Why do you guys go from right to left? Sorry Earl, you missed the first and the last which ever way you see them... But you were close... The far right one might be throwing a little curve at you, they use to normally be round nose... Hobie has the left one right ... or is that right that ...

smokenrust

Old time Hunter, Its fifth, sixth and seventh from right... But you did get the center three correct

There are two more farther over that are hidden, got slide picture over to see them.

smokenrust

"and their charcoal blue is rather fragile; but quite pretty when new, (wears quickly)."

I had wondered about that. Now I know... And I have always thought that finish was real purty.
Is charcoal blue thin only on the Cimarron or is that the nature of that finish on other guns too?

smokenrust

Maybe talk him into a 45 Long Colt Chaparral Arms 1873 24"

Got tang safety, no good, send it to me... LOL
Thats a nice rifle in octagon barrel and takedown no less

smokenrust

That 175 yard target didn't stand a chance with your eagle eye and that 76.

Sure looks good from here.
Now you know that 175 yards isn't out of the question now.

smokenrust

" i very seldom shoot over 100 yards at anything, deer are generaly in the 50-75 range ." Pitchy, at 50 yards you dang near have them stumbling over your feet... You must treat them like pets... The few around here I think must have spies... If I go out to the field, they are only half way...

Well, its not listed anymore, totally taken off.

Thanks Pitchy for reply. I called them and asked about availability of the 50-95 and its only avail. in 22' but they have both listed calibers in the 28". Then I asked about availability of brass and they don't have it. Kinda funny that gun manufactor will spin out obsolete calibers and then do...

smokenrust

So pitchy, which rifle is that one? 22, 26 or the 28" one. And did they say what the rate of twist is? It sure looks good, to good. Question for the rest is which caliber would you chose and why if you were to buy one of these 1876 Chaparral Arms 600 dollar guns fron CDNN. The 40-60, 45-60, 45-...
