Looks like a fun day at the range for sure. Nice rifles.

Rube Burrows

Happy Birthday guys.

Rube Burrows

Nice shooting. Pretty dog also.

Rube Burrows

I agree Wind.....great pic. Very beautiful rifle. I think I will put a tang sight on mine also.

Rube Burrows

Man, glad you are okay. Or as okay as can be expected.

Rube Burrows

that looks like some fun shooting.

Rube Burrows

Yes, I did.

I have never owned a 32-20 but have a Marlin 1889 first year production that will be heading my way soon and its in 32-20.

Rube Burrows

I know that my .44 Mag Model 94 had a stamped lifter. I know because I had to get several rounds out from under it! If I had known why it did that I'd have gotten it fixed rather than trading for a Marlin 1894. It was a very accurate rifle. Man. That really sucks. I love my 94 in 44 mag and it's su...

Rube Burrows

Pisgah, I hear ya. I didn't say he faked having a store front. He simply had to add one so there would be a place for interaction. Not fakery as you put it. I guess you are going to say that he didn't surpress a 12 Gage next. I am def not here to argue. He said it was really fired and I'll take his ...

Rube Burrows

In general do people ever tang sight a 32-20 or is it usually for rifle calibers?

Rube Burrows

Ok, actually just talked to will an he said the cannon fire was real. Fired iron ball, real fire.... If you dispute that then head on over to bayoushooter and talk with will.

Rube Burrows

Personally, I was disappointed with the show. Too much macho BS tough-talk, most of it obviously scripted (a flaw most of these types of shows share), and the firing of the Civil War cannon was clearly faked. I don't think the firing of the cannon was faked, but when the "house" blew up, ...

Rube Burrows

Very true about not being able to please everyone all the time.

Its a pretty gun but has little use......as if I need it to have more use for me to want it.

Rube Burrows

Along with myself, several people I know that have mounted the Marbles tang sight on 39a's and other levers simple leave the second screw out and only use the stock screw. Put a little epoxy under the base and cinch down the stock screw, sight will not go anywhere at all. I even know one guy who cu...

Rube Burrows

Does anyone make a tang sight that only requires the one screw hole in the rear? So I dont have to drill and tap another screw hole in a rifle.

I only have one rifle with a tang sight and would like to put one on another rifle but really didnt want to alter the gun by drilling it.

Rube Burrows

Rube, That carbine looks reasonably nice considering. I wouldn't mind having it. But not at $600.00. Getting the barrel band screws in a plated version might not be too difficult. Then again having blued ones plated isn't too hard. Assuming the threads inside the bands aren't stripped. Joe I would ...

I had no idea until I did a search on Auctionarms for Winchester 94 and they have one for sale.
Terry

I have always wanted one but they are pricey for a .410

Rube Burrows

Whoever did the nickle job on this gun really did it well. Also think it was done a pretty good while back. The only thing that is not in nickle is the rear sight and the wood. Even the steel buttplate is nickle. The pics sure do nothing for the actual rifle. Some of the pics make the nickle look wo...

Rube Burrows

So the Classic actually says "Classic" on the gun. Does the Antique actually say Antique?

Yes. They are in Baton Rouge. Will is a great guy and really knows his stuff. He has been giving us locals sneak peeks of the show for a while now. He built me a couple Saiga-12s.

Rube Burrows

He gave it to you.....that is awesome. Great gun with lots of potential. Dont just wrap it with wire. Find a stock for it and get the proper screws.

Rube Burrows

Very nice link indeed. Thanks for posting Griff.

Rube Burrows

your really scored on this one.....trigger job...and a short stroke kit.... is about 250 bucks worth..plus labor.... i see SASS in your future :wink: I have shot a couple matches. I have been getting together some cowboy guns for me and my son and we do plan to start shooting again. The action job ...

Rube Burrows

That is a beautiful rifle you snagged. I have been impressed with the kind of stuff Uberti is turning out. Thanks. Upon further messing with it, im almost sure its been short stroked also. I have never wanted a short stroke gun but if it is then its rather comfortable to work the lever. I was looki...

Rube Burrows

Joe, I still have the catalogs that cover those models. The Antique only came w/ the 20" round barrel. The Classic came with the 20" and 26" octagon barrel. BTW, I have owned a few Classic's and they tend to be very accurate. They were offered from 67-70. They also had an upgraded wo...

Rube Burrows

Looking forward to what you find.

Rube Burrows

Rube, Go here: http://onesticky.levergunscommunity.org/how_to/pre_post-64_winchesters.html Look at the second pic of the three rifles with the actions open. The pre-64s were machined. The post-64s were stamped. Those made from around 77 or so were cast. The stamped ones are no big problem as long a...

Rube Burrows

Rube, That 94 has been plated. Looks like bumper chrome on my monitor. The wood has been pretty much stripped of it's stain as well. It should have had a black chrome receiver with all else blued. Possibly a gold loading gate and saddle ring. That version would have been the Antique I believe. Sinc...

Rube Burrows

Thanks for all the replies. When he first told me about the gun I started to break the bad news to him that it was not original and therefore not worth much. You wouldn't have been fibbin', but it mighta hurt his feelings. IMO, still worth a few C notes, maybe only a couple, unless you like nickle!...

Rube Burrows

Rube Burrows

Rube, it looks like the safety has been disconnected as the lever appears to butt up against the lower tang without the safety holding it. I know mine won't even come close as the safety lever pushes it away without my holding the lever where your's is sitting. Just a note. I was told it had an act...

Rube Burrows

The engraving isn't standard hand engraving it's more like molded in. It's deeper than standard engraving so I could see it easily surviving a buffing. Plus, I don't think it'd take much to buff off the CCH. I'll get my camera out of my rig, dig the gun out and get some pics so you can see what I'm...

rodeo kid wrote:Joe, I have an "antique" 94. It does have the gold(now worn)loading gate and the gold colored saddle ring, but the receiver is case colored. God Bless.

Those are the ones I have seen with that scroll engraving. The ones with the cch. Never seen one with that color finish.

Rube Burrows

Looks like something has been done to the wood. Possibly. Dont know. I know it was made in 1966 but dont know if the finish is factory and it came like that or if someone along the line altered it. My friend has owned it for years and its looked like that the whole time he has had it. I want to off...

Rube Burrows

I have a friend who is looking to possibly sell me a Winchester 94 he has had in his safe for a while. When he got the gun he was told that it was Nickle. I have seen plenty of the 94s with this engraving on the side but have not seen one in nickle. Now, I have not seen the gun in person yet. He jus...

Well boys, it looks like we have another one addicted! :D I just love it when we get a youngun on the wagon. 'Ole Rube sold his black gun and got one that shoots big chunks of lead.

AR rifle that I never shoot anymore.

I have always wanted a 73 and have yet to even shoot one. Looking forward to shooting this one this weekend.

Rube Burrows

Well, came across a fellow who had what I wanted and I had what he wanted.....so a trade was made and both parties are happy. Here is what I got; Uberti 1873 in .45 Colt, 24" Octagon Barrel. Complete action job. Slicker than any snot you ever sneezed and a great trigger. http://i1019.photobucke...

Griff wrote:Marbles makes a tang sight that fits with the safety. No problem. Just remember to move it to the "fire" position, and that's it off!

I never seen those. Learn something new everyday.....if you pay attention.

Rube Burrows

I would be more apt to think about one if they didnt have the tang safeties on them. Be nice if you could put a tang sight on there if you wanted too.

Rube Burrows

Very nice.

Rube Burrows

Just get a Uberti or the likes there of. I have heard way too many negative things about Chapparal.

Rube Burrows

I have owned prob. 30 or more AK and SKS style rifles. Trust me......the ones you gave up are a dime a dozen and you did just fine on the trade.

Welcome to the site.

Rube Burrows

A 45-70/410, huh? I've all but given up hope in getting my lever .454, so I'm not too optomistic on the availibility of these particular rifles either. Then you have to deal with shot, rifling and donut patterns if you want any sort of shell accuracy... Uhg. That, and the lever judge just offends m...

Rube Burrows

Oh yeah, I can see a lot of fun with the .410 Mares's Leg, even more fun than one in 22LR. The whole Judge thing never just appealed to me at all, however, the "leverjudge"... Well, I may have to borrow some eye bleach from awp101... I have the Judge in 3" mag with the 3" barrel...

Rube Burrows

That Mare's Laig is about the best Mare's laig I have seen. At least with .410 you woudl be able to hit something.

I also like their full size Lever .410.

I have been wanting to pick up another .410 lever to shoot. That would be nice. I hope they make one with a longer barrel.

Rube Burrows

Not a lot of help but it may have been a custom piece.
