Sure is nice being away from the East Coast and all its aggravation. My son, John (Sixgun Jr.) and I decided not to go elk hunting this year and just take a week and play--you know, shoot and hit all the gunshops. Elk Hunting ain't easy the way we do it----with tent, no horses, and 10 degree weather-----and I just needed to rest these 54 year old bones.
Anyway, On Saturday, we drove on down to Pueblo, Co. to visit my good friend Gary (Cimarron Red) who is also a member of Leverguns. Gary & I did a lot of shooting and competing together in Pennsylvania before he moved away on me. (seems like everyone I like moves away from me--I hope the reason is the East Coast and not me!
) Gary is a Master Class BPCR Competitor and has taught me a lot on offhand shooting. Gary also has a 7 special order optioned 1894 38-55 I dearly fell in love with. It has a half rd/oct barrel, shotgun butt, half mag, special rear and front sights, nickel steel barrel, (very rare on 38-55) and takedown feature. OOoooooohhhh, and that 1894 in 30-30 with a stainless steel OCTAGON barrel. Well, thats enough drooling--here's a couple of pics.--------------SixgunMe, Gary's little buddy, and Gary
