I put one on my S&W 19-4 snubby some years ago.
It's still pretty small for my hands.
Target grips work better for me!

Skunks seem to pass through my yard regularly! I don't bother them;

I need a little bit of global warming up here this winter in Maine!

JOG

I wasn't sweating it!

JOG

I believe it's dumbing down America!
We have enough dumb people already!

JOG

That's a beauty, congratulations!

Great craftsmanship!

About a month ago my local gun shop had a pristine model 37 in stock! it had the red lettering {Winchester} on the bottom of the receiver. I think it was in 20 gauge if memory serves me correctly.
The price was $500! seems like quite a bit of sheckle's for a basic single shot!

Mystery Metal from 1964 to somewhere around 1982.
Good old, forged steel receivers from 82 onward.

JOG

That's a beauty!
congratulations on a good find!

I've had two Colt Officers 1911's over the years myself. One didn't shoot hollow points reliably. After picking up a Colt Lightweight commander 45acp, I decided to sell of the Officers models. It's just a bit too small for my hand! My smallest carry firearm is a Sig P239. It's never failed to fire a...

I couldn't log in the past two days!
Today seem ok.

Back in my teenage years, 3 friends and I went canoe camping on the Carmens river on Long Island N.Y. We brought shotguns, fishing pole, canned corn along with a few canteens of water. We also took a bottle of Jack Daniels along with a few cases of canned beer! I pulled 3 or 4 nice trout out of the ...

JOG

Looks much better without the unnecessary push button safety!
I replaced the safety on my Marlin Cowboy.
My other Marlins are pre safety.

Welcome to the forum! you seem like an old lever gun man.
That was a great story!
We enjoy the lever gun addiction here on the forum!
Don't get me started on old Colts and Ruger's!

Fantastic! What a send off!

It's been about a month!

KTP has a Mint 1959 Winchester 94 in 30-30 for 1,150.00!
quite pricey!

JOG

Hard times, hard men!

JOG

I think $350.00 is a steal on any Winchester!
Pre or post 1964!
Congratulations.

JOG

Thanks Jay! I picked it up foe $725.00 at KTP.
It seems pre 64 Winchester are going up quite a bit in the last few years!
Johnny

JOG

Great tune!

JOG

I recently came across a 1962 made Winchester model 94 in 32 spl.
It looks unfired to me! Not a bump or mark on it anywhere!
I just thought I would share.

Is that one of the Turkish made High Powers?
I wonder if it's true color casing.

JOG

That's a hard pass for me!

JOG

I've picked one up myself a few years back.
It's nice to look at and quite a shooter!

I have the Marlin 1894 Cowboy Limited with the octagonal 24-inch barrel in 45 Colt.
No issue whatsoever! Quite a shooter.

JOG

I handled one this past weekend. I'll stick with my pre 64 Winchester and Marlins!
If you like it that's all those matters!

JOG

Wow! incredible footage!

JOG

Quality craftsmanship!

JOG

I enjoyed that very much!

JOG

Thats a union 58 cal mini ball fired from a Springfield musket.
Your bullets appear to be dropped on the battlefield.
There doesn't appear to be any deformity of the rounds.
Johnny

JOG

I also like the straight stock Marlins {Texan}
I have one 336 Texan from 1954 in 35 Remington.
congratulations on a nice find!

Sweet 38-40 Six! Your collection amazes me!
Looking forward to putting a few dozen rounds downrange!
Johnny

JOG

Ok earl, she had a little movement, but not much! I let a couple drops of Hoppe's #9 sit a few minutes. I cleaned it out with a cute tip. A little bit of fouling. A little oil and it seems to have more wiggle. I ran 6 snap caps thru it without issue! I'll clean and oil it again before I put some mor...

I fired my Winchester 1892 38-40 for the first time this afternoon. Shooting 180 gr RN\FP reloads a friend had laying around a few years. I was more than happy with the accuracy at 50 yards! Somewhere around an inch to an inch and a quarter. Several rounds going thru the same holes! Unfortunately, I...

Yes sir, anytime!

Thanks for the info, Jay and Two bit!
The ser.# 95663
You guys are great!

JOG

Gentleman your lever action knowledge is just incredible! I'm always learning from you guys! Was the Winchester 76 a big improvement over the 73? Was the model 76 a toggle system like the 73? Jay, I guess I thought the 92 was somewhat of a better design due to the tight shucking of the lever! The 94...

JOG

It seems the cowboy action shooter favor the Italian. made model 73 over anything else. I think Hollywood got hold of a few hundred Winchester 92 and used them for 30 years or more! Although, I was watching the Big Valley this past Sunday and noticed they were using Marlin 94's. I still watch all of...

JOG

Thanks for all the info on proper loads for the old girl! It took quite a bit of cleaning with bore brush and patches. The crown looks good to go. After a good bit of oil, the lever feels incredibly smooth! It must be those double locking lugs. It's basically a scaled down 86. John Mosses Browning h...

JOG

Yes sir! Thanks for the info OldWin. It's my first jump into 38-40's!
It should be a fun shooter!
Johnny

JOG

Today I picked up a Winchester model 1892. Ser.#9566X. As far as I can tell it's manufactured in 1894 or 1895. It's been reblued some years ago, it's in 38-40 Caliber. Rifling appears to be in very good shape after a good cleaning! No pitting with very good lands and grooves! It has the 24-inch barr...

Dam Gentleman, some fine old Ruger Blackhawks! Six is showing off his fantastic collection again! I guess I can't blame him! I've got one Blackhawk that's 20+ years old {357} Now I'm thinking of buying a 1996 Vaquero in 45 Colt. I'm worried about the sights being off. I had one year ago that was off...

JOG

Great composition! Do you have a white cowboy outfit to Jim?

JOG

The Smith model 10 are great shooters for sure! For some reason I traded my 1967 !0-5 about a year ago. I did get in return a 1964 Smith model 19-1 with a 4-inch barrel. I put a vintage Tyler T grip adaptor on it. One hell of a shooter! Not a month later a 1978 Smith 19-4 snubby walk into my gun sho...

JOG

It's true! I'm not even sure what a dooryard is.
Back in N.Y. you had a stoop!
No coffee brandy, mostly just Guinness.
My great aunt had a home built here in 1964.
So, I've been coming up here for many years!
If you're not born here, you'll never be a true Mainer.

Now wait a minute fella! I was born and raised in the hood! New York, born in Brooklyn actually! Grew up on Long Island. Now the local Maine ladies like it when I put my gold grill in the mouth! I have a matching dew rag that the she demon can't hold back their instant arousal! I take all my fashion...
