I'll go along with that. This election is critical.

JB

He has other 44-40's for shooting. He just wanted this one for his collection. He ended up getting it today for $600.00 out the door. It's new in the box and unfired and will stay that way!

JB

I've asked several local Obama supporters what they like about him other than his charm, I've yet to get a response other than a blank look or anti Bush comments. We need to educate as many people as we can.

JB

I've seen a few of the regular 44-40's, just not the Cowboy model.

JB

My dad has the chance to pick up a new in the box 1894 44-40. I've scanned the auction sites for him, but can't find any recent sales on these. Any ideas what these are currently bringing?

JB

I own a few Lugers, but can't see any reason why anyone would even consider them for concealed carry. The safety is slow to use, they aren't the most reliable choice by any means, and any collectors value at all could be destroyed by one small part breaking or just wear and tear to the finish.

JB

I never thought I'd have much use for the Big Boy, too heavy and shiny for my tastes. But then I borrowed my dad's 44 mag. Big Boy and was very impressed. It's of the most accurate 44 lever guns I've ever shot and very smooth.

JB

I believe they are 9 shot, but someone beat you to the draw. Sorry

JB

I'll offer up two magazines for an AMT 22 mag. auto.

I could use the holster. I'll have to inventory my "junk" tonight to see what goodies to offer back up.

I don't like the end of my barrel sticking out of the holster or scabbard, but I've always preferred an open end to drain water and allow air to circulation to dry any moisture.

A good farmer friend of mine once told me, "if they're in the barn, they're barn cats, but if they're outside the barn, they're feral so shoot em". The smart ones learned not to venture from the barn

JB

I started teaching my son to shoot in the backyard with a Davy Crickett rifle and the Super Colibri rounds. It is quieter than a cap gun and the backstop I used was a Gamo brand pellet trap designed for the faster pellets. It worked pretty good for us. My son is now 13 and we just loaned the rifle ...

JB

The man invented the internet, cut him some slack!

JB

I'm a BL22 fan as well. I own a 9422, 39, and a Henry, but the BL22 is my favorite.

JB

I'll take the 223 brass if still available! Even if it's not an even 500

I'll offer up a set of factory wood S&W N frame grips as my free offering.

JB

GB isn't going to do anything. If the guy has any sales history at all, he's generating revenue for them. I know a big shill bidding problem a local seller got into there. After repeated complaints, they did finally give him a "shame on you", but he's still an active seller.

JB

I believe some parts will interchange, just not all of them. If the Browning part won't work (and can't be picked up cheap), I'd pass on the rifle. They were neat rifles when you could still buy them new for $99.00, but the cheap wood they use is prone to breaking.

JB

I had a Remington factory maple stocked 541 once. It had a very nice looking stock.

JB

Ron Paul would be fine with me, but a write-in doesn't stand a chance in the primary. It's really just helping the Obama & Clinton side. McCain isn't my first choice, but he's the lesser of the evils as far as I'm concerned. He's not pro gun, but he's not a huge anti like Osama and Billery either.

JB

Here's my Australian Naval Reserve cadet rifle. It's still in the original 310 caliber.

JB

To those that think there is a lesser of two evils between Obama and Hillory, I'd like to point out that is like choosing the lesser evil between Stalin or Lenin. I choose to avoid that decision if it's all the same. McCain isn't perfect but he's not a socialist. The other two are! There are 9 mont...

JB

I enjoy playing with my 44 mag. Henry. I actually prefer the tube load to the the loading gate. It's probably more accurate than my Marlin or Winchester 44's, but it is heavy. It wouldn't be my choice for hunting, but it's a blast at the range.

JB

I had a Chapman set, but they were too brittle. I kept breaking tips. I've had good luck with the Brownells bits, although I still snap a few of the very smallest ones. I recently found a set of hollow ground tips at Sears on sell for arond $9.99. So far I haven't broken or bent any of them.

Don't depend on Simpsons for accurate values. They have a well know reputation for being honest dealers, but on the extreme high side as far as pricing. I've always found real world pricing to be a good bit lower!

I have anything against anyone based on their color of skin, but I'd have no problems with just about ANY measure to keep out the illegals. If the penalty was something more than a free ride back to their country, they might think twice about trying it. I did play the game, but once I saw it was a n...

JB

Personally I'd shop for a cheaper one, or just pick up the Marlin. I own Trapper as well as Marlins, to me that much price difference isn't justified.

JB

I've got an uncle who's a retired auto worker. He talks about people doing all sorts of sabotage by the autoworkers to slow down or stop the assembly lines. I'm sure it has happened in the firearms business as well.

JB

We here in WV fully showed our support of Huckabee yesterday. He won big here!

JB

Now Huckabee's name is being tossed around as VP. I'd rather have him as president, but having him as VP beats the heck out of Billery or Osama.

It would be nice if someone with a little literary skill could draft a letter we could all use to send to our representatives. I'm darn good with numbers, but suck at writing letters.

JB

I much prefer the Weaver style to the Redfield style ring system. I think the Weaver style is much stronger.

JB

I believe muzzle down is the best way, but I've got to admit most of mine are muzzle up just because it often easier to store them that way.

JB

I'd pass as well. I found a reblued 92 rifle in 32-20 last week. The shop owner told me he'd let it go for $900.00. In my opinion he was asking about twice it's true worth.

JB

The Browning BL22 is one of my favorites. It has a very short lever throw that's just soooo nice.

JB

I've also used Unique with good success for all the rounds mentioned.

JB

The important thing is that we stick together and keep Billery and Osama out. Whomever gets the GOP nomination has to be an improvement over those two.

JB

It's an old urban myth. Pure b.s.

JB

I prefer the 44 magnum mostly because there's a much larger varity of ammo and loading components available.

JB

You could get a shooter trapdoor far cheaper than you could buy a junker and have it rebarreled. That way you'd have some collector value to it as well.

JB

Mine doesn't have the black finish. It's a walnut stain, but it sure wipes off easily.

JB

I picked up a new Puma 44 magnum. It had a spot of "gunk" on the stock so I used a little lemon oil to clean it. I've used lemon oil on $50.00 to $5,000 firearms with no problems, but the stain started wiping off the Puma. I know they use a cheap hardwood and just give it a walnut stain, b...

My grandfather and several other family members are masons, but I've never had the desire to be a member of a "secret" organization. I've know masons that were super individuals, but I've also known masons that were drunks, abused their wives, crooks, etc. There's good and bad just like an...

I think my earliest lever gun is 1887, but I have a few non levers that a good bit older

I don't think it's out of line with what some of the other true wholesale distributors are charging. They turn over quite a few firearms, so I'm sure their stock is as current as most any other distributors. JB, JSC is one of my main source. I just check and the cheapest stainless any cal. in not j...

JB

Nice deal. I had a 357 Puma offered to me this week for $300.00 and didn't get it. I'm now kind of wishing I'd made a counter offer as well

Nate,

You should be able to find that price at a number of distributors. I know JSC currently has them listed for that so you better get your money ready.
