My first lever was a Red Ryder back in 1953. You too will mostlikely gain a few over those 2 you have, and you'll find a place in your heart for each one. Welcome to the forum.

You mean like one of these? :D

These hang in my son's room. The one at the top was my father's, circa 1940. The one in the middle was mine, circa 1970. The one at the bottom I purchased for my son the day he was born in 1998. All three still work, and this got my son - like myself before him - hooked on levers!!! :D

Haycock - I used to live in Easton - only about 3 years and that was.... 13 years ago or so. Do you belong to the Easton Fish and Game Association? http://www.efga.net/

I was a member there - good club. Looks like the range next to the waste management area is gone and it is now wholely at the "country" location - which is fine.

Well come on back, O.S.O.K.! It's still as pretty and the hunting is as good as when you were around these parts. To answer your question, nope... I shoot guns at Paletown Rod & Gun and bows at Clover Leaf Archery, both outside of Quakertown.
