My favorite levergun - PICS

Post by mod71alaska »

My favorite levergun ~this morning~ is a new-to-me Browning 53 customized to .218 Bee with an original Winchester Repeating Arms 30" octagon barrel. Whoa...this long barreled 53 holds sight like an old flintlock! Good thing I have a case of .218 Bee stashed away 'cause .218 Bee is like shooting $3 bills! Here she is:

Howdy Victor :D ,
I really like that set up. Has me thinking 32-20.

I am confused. (but being half Italian, that ain't hard to do.)

What caliber was that original barrel originally in?-------------------Sixgun

It's good to hear from you again, Victor - and I'm glad to see you're "actice". :P :P

With the 30" bbl on that beauty, you won't have to worry about wasting any of that expensive ammo - since you can probably just reach out and touch them varmints. ;) :mrgreen:

Jack, the Browning 53 originally was chambered in 32-20. You're not confused and STILL half Italian!!! :lol:
