If I remember right, didn’t the old Rossi make the EMF Hartford and Navy branded 92s? It’s been a while…
This EMF Hartford 92 started as a 20” 44-40 short rifle, and is now a 16” 44Special.

Poohgyrr

Yes, that “storage lock” as S&W calls it, is really, really ugly. I have two, both N frame versions of old originals that I couldn’t afford. Both match up with 16” Levers in the same rounds. My favorite may be the 4” fixed sight 44Special that Smith came out with a few years back. Looks good wit...

Poohgyrr

Thank you for updating us on both. A recovering appetite can be a good sign. And hip problems just plain suck. Prayers up for both, and for families and friends.

Poohgyrr

Those are great looking 44Specials, thanks for sharing. The round remains great. Powerful enough, flexible, and easy to load. The wheelguns are sweet. I have a fun little 16” EMF Hartford M92, cut down & rechambered to Special by Steve’s Gunz, back around Katrina. Not a single action, but it cou...

Poohgyrr

Yes, thank you for sharing Mr Audie’s poem. Appreciate it.

Poohgyrr

Awesome! Thanks for the post, on both Paco & his Smith .45….

Poohgyrr

Belated response here, but thanks. Had a great day with my lovely bride and our dogs, and phone calls with kids (out on their own!!!) and friends.

Poohgyrr

Prayers definitely up. Our best, and may our Lord bless her.

Another success story here. Last year my left eye changed so fast my year old new glasses weren’t working for it. Dr said yeah it’s the cataract in that eye. Finally had the surgery last August and now it’s 20/20; best ever in my whole life. They say I no longer need glasses to drive. The surgery it...

Poohgyrr

Well, every range day is a better day!

And the 30-30 Trapper is simply a great little Lever. I like those targets too. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.

Poohgyrr

Thank you for this update. Appreciate it. My best to Paco & his family. He’s looking good in that pic.

Poohgyrr

Thank you for the update…. Prayers up for Paco and his family for strength, guidance, and recovery.

Poohgyrr

Bob,
I and (I’m sure) others, truly enjoy and appreciate the information you, and others, have shared here. Please, don’t worry at all about the WW2 part of this. And thank you for your service.

It’s all Levers, and pieces of our history.

Poohgyrr

Thanks Bob.

On another forum, old family history has come up with at least one Win 94 at WW2 Pearl Harbor...

Poohgyrr

The Canadian information is neat, I’m not sure if I had read that before.

Does anyone remember our military (or whoever) issuing M94’s to protect our forests in WW2? Or WW1 if I’m confused about which war?

Poohgyrr

I’m sure I remember posts, or maybe an article, about the Win94 being issued to protect our forestry woods during WW2. These posts would be from a few years ago, I believe from when Paco was still active here... But I haven’t been able to find it... Does anyone else remember this or can you point me...

Poohgyrr

Well, congratulations to all for beating the ChiCom virus, and prayers up for our futures. I plan to continue washing and being clean in general - as taught when I was a kid. And I’m sad to read “the mask” doesn’t defeat this virus. If it does work, then we’ve also beat the common flu and every othe...

August 28, 2019 at 3:20PM MST we escaped across the border (legally) into Arizona. May the Old California that I grew up in, Rest In Peace. :cry: Have been on vacation since, visiting family & friends in six states. We’ll eventually settle down in West Texas. Escaping that political culture is r...

Subject to change at any given moment, these should do fine for North America (excepting shots across the Plains or from ridge to ridge)... S&W 640-1 (357Magnum, 5 rounds) S&W PC M27-8 (3 1/2” barrel, 357Magnum, 8 rounds) Glock32 (357Sig, with barrels for 40S&W and 9mm) (heresy! But only...

Well, for now anyway: a Para Ordnance P13-45 and my tuned 16” M92 in 44Special.

Here is another video on who BM donates money to (basically it goes to antigunners) This Lady goes by “Liberty Doll” and shares some info with us:

$1.759 in La Marque, TX just now.

Poohgyrr

Bill, yup that’s a favorite of mine! Just touch it up when the dye wears off and it looks good too. Most any well made holster will last a long time, and today we have so many more choices than 30 years ago. There’s a lot of good choices out there. El Paso Saddlery certainly has a lot of happy custo...

Kramer #2 IWB or Mernickle PS6 OWB or Lobo Pancake. A Mernickle mag pouch for double stack, Lobo or Sparks pouches for single stacks.

Belated Happy Birthday, and may you enjoy many more happy & healthy BD’s. Our best for your home & all.

Poohgyrr

A few days ago at $1.92 a gallon in La Marque, TX.

Beats the $3.25 paid By friends in Sacramento. CA that same day.

Poohgyrr

Just now seeing this, and a big congratulations! Take lots of pics & video because they grow up fast!

Poohgyrr

Congratulations and good luck with your 357Lever! They are really amazing. And, if you haven’t found the other parts of this website yet, here is one link to an article Paco wrote some time back. There is more great information & articles spread about here, we just have to look around. http://ww...

Poohgyrr

Oh geez I should’ve seen that coming. Yup got me too.

Poohgyrr

Even if it’s a mistake, they are still lying sneaks who only do things to benefit themselves. They will want info on us and control of communications.

Poohgyrr

That’s one of the Buckeye Sports guns. If anyone truly wants a good one for a good price, I just posted one in classified. It’s simply going to waste here & someone can make better use of it.

Poohgyrr

Congratulations on that! A good 92 in 357Magnum is a good thing to have around.

Gifts or buying for someone is only straw if they would be denied, otherwise it’s good.

Here in the USA, the Ranch Hand pistols are easier to buy than a SBR, and we “make it work”. In, say Canada, they can just put a rifle stock on it. Good for them! Same with the new 12 & 20 gauges; new legal guns that meet existing tiny print law. I still have a Mare’s Leg on my wish list. I coul...

Poohgyrr

I’d wonder if these wouldn’t work similar to the 12ga things being sold by mossberg & Remington now? There is a lot of chatter about them, and the Remington rep at Shot Show said their Tac14 is the hottest selling gun they make now. I wish I’d bought a Ranch Hand in 357 when they were made, and ...

And one thread on Marlin Owners: http://www.marlinowners.com/forum/ranch ... ics/105382

Poohgyrr

I still think these look like fun, and if they make it easier to hit what I’m shooting at, then great. I haven’t bought one though.

Poohgyrr

Great thread, thanks for reminding me of these. I don’t definitely remember making one of these, maybe about ‘67 in a school science class? Back when schools around here did that. But I’m checking You Tube and looking around now. This should be fun, thanks again.

Started out with Bogart as a waist gunner on a French bomber, standing behind an M2.

Yup. I noticed the same things. Still not a bad Bogey movie, but they could watch more of the details.

Poohgyrr

Thank you for sharing. Yes, that should be required reading in schools and elsewhere. Merry Christmas.

Congratulations and good shopping. Enjoy that piece!

I wish I’d shot enough to need this. That’d be a lot of fresh meat! Now I’m hungry for breakfast.

Spectators and players at ARMY - NAVY game stand and salute. Merry Christmas and thank you for your service!

Prayers up for a quick full recovery, and our best.

Which ever floats your boat. And preferably several. For myself, any double action S&W 2” to 4” barrel teams up well with a 357Magnum M92. Tailor the ammo to the job, from mid-range wadcutters to full power. Single actions are also sweet. I grew up watching NOT too many Westerns, and we still ar...

Poohgyrr

Thanks for the info about longer rounds working in your Henry. That’s good to know.

I handled a Henry 357 at a LGS last summer. It felt good and had a clean action. One of them is definitely on my want list.

Poohgyrr

That's the way to do it! Very good.

Poohgyrr

Yup. We still have, I think two adapters, although it's been a few years since we went tent camping. They save money and always worked fine for us. I keep all our old gear handy in case we ever get that big earthquake.

Some good memories from using those things.

Poohgyrr

Puppies are really cute, and it is true about them wagging their tails and it being hard to not be happy.
