Re: New Pedersoli 86 classic for 2019
The 1886 is my favorite rifle, but I don't care for either the CCH or the wood on the pictured example.

Re: Lunar eclipse tonight. 11:41 EST time
That was interesting. The shadow came on from west to east, then moved back off to the west, from where it came, instead of moving straight across like I would have expected. After the fact, I understand this, just didn't expect it beforehand.

Re: The New Marlin Texan Deluxe
Beautiful wood. The gold horse and rider doesn't bother me, but the gold trigger does. Overall, a very nice looking rifle, and I'm glad Remington is interested enough in the Marlin brand to produce it.
