So, no tweaking required? Good to go out of the box?

How tough is the dip finish?

toby

Nice basket case, have any before pics?

toby

I prefer the old school 1/4-20 no blow myself.

toby

Nice shooting,looks good, how does some one get that "antiqued" look?

I'm new here, but for what it's worth, I enjoy this site as it is. The main focus is lever guns, but I'm always interested in different things. I have learned about hunting in England, old fishing reels, missionary work in Africa, a kind of an eclectic mix of things. I enjoy my lever guns and this i...

So, quality is going to change how?

toby

Hate to say it, but my 10/22 is after getting a little slicked up. After that it would be my Nylon 66.

toby

My son-in-law has the S&W, it puts the bullets where they need to be. He hasn't had any problems with it. But when we go shoot, I like the original look. Mine is a clone of the Colt 604 model I built using all old Colt parts except for the lower receiver. Lower rec. is a modified Rock River Arms...

Neat designs guys,keep them coming please.

Can I throw in a request for .25 Stevens Long?

Why did the chicken cross the road? to prove to the possum it could be done....

Do they still give out free beer at the end of the tour of the Buckhorn saloon? 30 years ago they did, but I haven't been back since.

Don't forget to file down the sharp edges on the fromt sight too...

I shoot often, but no longer hunt around here. Growing up, I could hunt squirrel, dove, & nutria in basicly my backyard. But now my town of 2,500 has a population of over 40,000. I have $500,000 homes sitting in what used to ricefields.

toby

I've seen them at Cheaper Than Dirt and wondered how they held up.

toby

Thanks for posting your pics. Reminds me of my Grandparents home in the 1950's.

toby

Thanks for posting. Interesting rifle. The Venturino letter was a nice touch.

toby

It's a 1906, not like you can pick one up at Walmart. Unless you really need the cash, keep the gun. Clean it up and enjoy. If you have to reline it, it's not that expensive. A 1906 & Winchester model 61 is on my wish list.

Thanks for all the replies. It looks like I'm have to get a look at this little jewel. This has really got my curiosity up. I'm gonna have to meet up with dad in a month or so.

toby

My dad has the same problem with his Favorite. He has the 1894 version Favorite in .25 also. From what we found out on the internet, he could reline the barrel - about $200.00, and either replace the pivoting block & firing pin, or have the FP hole welded up and redrilled with a new FP. So he de...

toby

I know, not a lever gun question. But I'm sure somebody would know the answer. My dad owns a 1898? Colt SAA, serial number 178xxx, black gutta percha grips, fairly decent blueing, with about a (guessing about) 6" barrel. He says it is marked .38 Special on the barrel. Is that possible? Could he...

My wife is my best friend too. Plus she buys me ammo,guns, & beer. What's not to love about that?

But I'm back now. Anyway I just won this Stevens/Savage marked Favorite off Auction Arms and was ti...

toby

Not too shabby.

toby

Toss up between my Nylon 66 or my dad's 62A. For pistol, it would be my Buckmark.

Nice rifles

what a deal!

No, he stole it for that amount. Wow. Good price.

I never find deals like that. Colt Ar's aren't cheap in my neck of the woods.

toby

If you want it to blend in better, you could always put walnut furniture on it. I've seen his work in person and it's gorgeous. He does mainly old mil-surp stuff like ak's, ar's, Fal's, etc.Solid walnut, maple, laminates, etc. Ironwood is the company. This isn't mine, mine is still all black. http:/...

toby

What did you get? At least you can find .223 everywhere.

toby

Interesting as long as it doesn't pattern like a shotgun. Have to show my buddy this.

toby

Good info. I liked the homemade shooting bench.

toby

Did he have a blow-out sale?

toby

Just go easy. You can always take more wood off, but you can't put it back on.

25 feet, I'm retired and that's the distance from my bed to my recliner.

Remember when at the Astros games, they had the groundskeepers dressed as Astronauts?

Hope not, picked up a couple of Fed. 150gr. boxes myself to test out my new rifle.Was waiting on the rain to quit, now waiting on the ice to go away. Yep, I'm a wimp.

I think we're talking about 2 different Wolf's. My post was about the imported Wolf ammo from Russia.

toby

ammo.com wants $16.99 a box, 20 rounds in a box.

toby

Anybody ever use this? Russian made 30-30 ammo, re-loadable brass. Might make good plinking ammo for those who don't reload. I've used Wolf in my Ar & Ak and not had a problem other than it seems dirtier than American made stuff. Probably find it cheaper at the gun show though. http://www.iammo....

All my local wallymarts sell ammo. But only 3 within a 100 mile radius sell guns. Luckily the closest is about 5 miles from the house. But the gun selling walmarts will let you order from their special order book. Then it takes about 4 days for the gun to arrive. I had to order a Crickett .22 for my...

toby

Wow, definitely your lucky day.

toby

Thanks for the compliments. I was hoping the butt was a super secret special order from Winchester. I guess not. But at least I don't have to buy a letter from the Cody museum now to verify it. I do like the curved butt plates, they remind me of the 1892's. The stock does have a reddish hue to it, b...

Hello, after a couple of months lurking, I thought I'd say hello and post a pic of my only 94 so far. Never owned a lever gun before. Been more of a milsurp type. So I figured I'd remedy that. My dad has a 1892 that I always admired. So I picked this up about a week ago. 1957 '94 in 30-30. What got ...
