Re: I was wondering how many of you have explored the Leverguns Site?
I too believe that that site is how I found the forum. Thought I was in heaven. Read everything of interest at that time and then father time made me forget about it for years. I want to go back now and start over since my interests have expanded.

Re: He would have turned 111 years old this week.
Awesome pic! My Dad's dad died when I was 10, so I didn't know him too well. He did let me ride around on his horse drawn wagon. Here's one of him and his team circa late 50s. Just a plain farmer who moonlighted as fiddle player for the weekend dances at the county seat.

Yes, and .32 extra long RF, which may have been the same round.If I recall correctly, it was able to fire .32 short, long, and long rifle RF, and .32 Short and Long Colt for CF.

Marlin 1891
I was digging around in my old PC and found some pics I had "lost". Test firing my .32 cal. Model 1891 with 32 rimfire. Mfg in 1892. I later switched to a center-fire pin and tried her out with .32 Short Colt.

With the steel forearm tip that's a pre bankruptcy No. 2 made prior to 1887. It should have the "E. Remington & Sons" rollstamp on the barrel. Post 1887 they dropped the steel tip and went to Remington Firearms Co. barrel stamp. Cool info. The rollmark is in the first pic. I read that...

Re: #1 1/2 Rolling block question
Thanks again. No more than I shoot, I think a good scrubbing will serve my purposes. It looks much better than the bore on my 73 Win which shoots fine. I looked it over again today before sticking in layaway and took a few more pics.

Found one in a pawn shop today in .22 cal. with a 3 digit ser no. Trying to figure out the going rate, but can't find any comps online (GB, and GI). Can I assume that a .22 would go for less than a CF? This appears to be a very old reblue, including the receiver. Bore aint too shabby but filthy. An ...
