nice to be back up and running. this forum is starting to feel like home. Bummers to loose the message count, but what is important is that the information and ideas keep flowing.

rjohns94

join our fire and stay a while

rjohns94

welcome and nice post. good luck with your 1895 and post a range report of your shooter

rjohns94

Incidents such as this continue to reinforce the need for sheepdogs to be posted at all times, in malls, in business, in church. God bless to all who serve others in this manner. The lady is a true hero. She was trained, and had the mindset to carry her training out which resulted in saved lives.

Nath,

Mike

rjohns94

Use to be WINFREES in Grafton Va on rte 17 Worked there part time for many years while in the service. A shop filled with Colt SAA, Old Military and LOTS of fine leverguns. Currently, the internet is where I look for my gun deals.

rjohns94

rjohns94

I will be using my 1876 in 45-75 for rifle season. I am using Buffalo arms smokeless ammo since I'm not set up to reload this cartridge yet. On my side, I will be using my Gary Reeder .44 mag SBH with Garrett ammo. During blackpowder season, my .54 Cal, Brad Emig built Virginia Rifle. I use 110gr of...

rjohns94

A bolt action, 20 gauge Mossberg with one of those choke restrictors hanging on the end of the barrel. Dove, Quail, Squirrels, and deer all fell to that gun.

First handgun was a Ruger SBH in .44mag with a 7 1/2" barrel, followed by a Colt .45 ACP Govt Model, series 70.

vowed long ago to be a sheep dog. below represent my essential carry items. The S&W .38+P is always near, I have a Carry permit for it. The auto knife is in my truck, the benchmade is on my jeans pocket, the Randall is either in my truck or at the small of my back. [img][img]http://i222.photobuc...

[img][img]http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd207/rjohns94/Randall.jpg[/img] I carried a Randall very similar to this one for many years in the service and it was used very effectively in a variety of circumstances. After the service, I retired the Randall I carried and now carry this one daily. Th...

I don't belong to a range in york. Been shooting on the ranges on the game lands but they have closed them down. The posted shooting was done on a friends property. I am looking to join a club. I belong to the York Archers near your rifle range.

Brad does real fine work. I have purchased all my possibles from his shop for the Virgina rifle and the British Fowler .62 cal that he built for me. In fact, I bought the the percussion hammer British 12 gage in his shop. The .54 has taken 4 or 5 deer, fox, squirrels, rabbits, ground hogs and a few ...

rjohns94

my favorite is the 1897 .22lr with a tang peep site. load it up and roam all day. CASASTAHLE, we should get together and shoot some since we both hail from York, Pa

rjohns94

THANKS HOBIE, WHERE SHOULD I POST PICS IN THE FUTURE SO THAT I CAN INPORT THEM HERE?

rjohns94

CONGRATS ON YOUR FINE MOOSE, THANKS FOR SHARING

rjohns94

Perhaps I don't have the pics on a public domain sight. which do you recommend?

rjohns94

rjohns94

HOBIE, What did I do wrong. I can cut and paiste the URL's to get to the pictures, but obviously I want the pics to show up on the post. Somehow I Screwed up. I need some serious help please.

regards

mike

rjohns94

Below are some of the girls. The top pic is the new Cimarron 1876 , with a target of a magazine full of rounds down range at 50 yards. That's 12 shots of 45-75. I didn't measure the group but its less than MO Bullet length. I got the midrange vernier and beech front sight from http://www.riflesmith....

rjohns94

I have something in my eye

rjohns94

I shot on the Navy Rifle and Pistol team in the mid to late 80's. I shot at Perry several times. I was also Officer in Charge of the East coast team for two years. I burned 30,000 rounds of ammo in high power rifle and pistol each year for several years. I reached Distinguished Expert in both high p...

The quality of the rattles are directly proportional to the size of the antlers being rattled. Using a small rack to make rattles will not result in a quality set of rattles. For rattling in big bucks, you need good size mass of antler to carry tonal quality and depth. IMHO

I misread the first part of the equation, only two solutuions as previously posted. my bad

rjohns94

IT has three solutions. X =0,3,1

rjohns94

Welcome . enjoy

rjohns94

I RETIRED from active service in 98, after 21 years of Navy special forces. Since then, I have futzed in Sales, Teaching and a small (one person) business. Now I am just TIRED!!! Best of luck. What I missed (and still do) is being a part of something I believed in that was bigger than life, if I am ...

rjohns94

Hmmm. Not to pick on words, but your poll asks favorite caliber, while your post asks if I had to have only one. For me, two different questions and answers. If I could have only one, (In the US), I would choose a 12 ga shotgun. that would allow me protection, hunting of almost all game and recreati...

rjohns94

This does look like he is standing in front of a large picture. The rifle looks very similar to a harpers ferry muzzle loader, vice a lever rifle. I love the old pictures, thanks for the post.

rjohns94

VERY KEWL post . thanks.

rjohns94

I would agree with Hobie. A *** (small of the back) holster with the grip up will allow you to carry that pistol without printing. However, you must be sure to to sit straight and bend at the knees or you will give the guns location away. This time of year, fall and into spring, a jacket will cover ...

rjohns94

Excellent news. please keep the updates coming. the prayers continue

rjohns94

so I decided to purchase a midrange vernier sight and a beech front sight from The Rifle Smith. The beech front is gold inlaid. When I get them on the rifle I will post a pic along with the range report.

rjohns94

which model marbles?

rjohns94

My Cimarron in 45-75 is soon off to the range. I have some 140 loaded rounds ready for a range day, all .348 resized brass. My question is which tang sight have you chose for your Cimarron 1876's. I was thinking of a hunters mid range vernier, just not sure which company to go with. thanks for your ...

rjohns94

Which tang sight did you put on the 1876 from Jeff's outfitters, the general long range tang?

rjohns94

I would love the high resolution pics. thanks for sharing. Mike. rjohns94@jhu.edu

I misread the question. I have one centerfire lever rifle in 45-75, an 1876. I have one centerfire semi, a Rock River, CAR-15, with quad rail, holo sight and entry light. I have a Gary Reader .44 mag RSBH, 5 1/2 SS pistol. I have a .22 Stevens favorite. I have an 1897 Marlin in .22. A custom built ....
