Might I suggest the books! Tough to get one of Craig Johnson's story lines into a 45 min script. I like the show, BUT I've read all of the books and REALLY ENJOYED them - everyone.

My wife is puzzled at my laughing out loud going through his books - Johnson's humor just adds to the read!!

The rifle is a Winchester Model 94. No idea the caliber but the smart money would be on a 30-30. Yeah I saw that hammer down on the 1911 too, but still I like the show. The books are better.

My current carry gun is the Kahr PM9. I carry in big pockets in a Remora holster and in my dress slacks in an IWB Old Faithfull holster. I recently sold two full size Ruger's (P-89 & P-95) and my Sig P938 and purchased two full sized 9mm's so I would have the same manual of arms as my Kahr. I go...

I've been thinking about their lever 410

I picked up one of he youth sized BL-22's last fall - its great to shoot and my wife can easily hold it up!

gcburt

The BL-22 seems to be a great lever action 22. I decided I liked it better than either the Marlin or Henry.

When you get through with your refurishment project - you'll have a good addition to your arsenal.

Thanks Doc for starting this thread - I've enjoyed the read!!

I've enjoyed them both a number of times, but then I pretty much like all westerns. The TV channel I watch mostly is "Encore's Western Channel."

Welcome to the forum. There is something about lever guns that just gets ahold of a fellow. This "Site" will be hazardous to your wallet. I had one Winchester when I joined and now I find that I've added three Brownings. AND there are still Marlins, Henrys and Rossis out there. WELCOME

I have a 9mm carbine with a red-dot-sight that I finally zeroed last Friday. Not bad to shoot - put about 50 rounds through it in the zeroing and followup process without too much bother to my sholder. But I did enjoy the Marlin 410 even though it wasn't the short model. Looking in this area there w...

In another thread I mentioned firing a friend's Marlin Lever 410 a week ago - Today. I enjoyed shooting it, and am thinking about adding one to my collection. I have a 12 gage Auto 5, but I think one of the short lever 410's would make a better home defense weapon. It would also be kinder to my torn...
