Thanks. It's a beauty. I like the 1877s. I have a few .41 caliber ones and picked this one up but decided to stick to the .41s for now.

Rube Burrows

The following was posted on another forum so I thought I would include it here. Given the date of production, this revolver should have a 0.357-0.358” bore. You can use 38spl dies to load Starline 38 long colt brass and use standard 38 caliber 125 cowboy bullets instead of the old 0.375” heel-type b...

I have a very nice Colt 1877 Lightning Revolver in .38. The guns has been gone through by well respected 1877 gunsmith Salvatore Lanara. He has fitted it with new springs and made sure it was running well and in timing. I have not shot it since it came back from him. It has been sitting in the safe ...

Taken down

A few more photos.

I’d be open to serious offers.

Fermin is a wonderful guy to work with.

I have always been touched by Jay Ungar's "Ashokan Farewell," a recent melody that made the 19th century and the soulful spirit of "The Civil War" of Ken Burns come alive. I ran across this version featuring Jay's daughter Molly on the violin, but with a larger suite of instrume...

Nice harvest.

It was on my list of wants for a long long time. I have not shot this one much but I am trying to build a house and things aren't cheap.

Rube Burrows

Beautiful Winchester 1886 Takedown rifle in 45-70. Hate to get rid of this one but building a house and could use a little extra money. Not sure they are making these anymore and can only find one on GB recently. This is the takedown version and has about 500 bucks worth of MVA rear and front sights...

She played in a lot of good westerns. May she RIP

Rube Burrows

Looks like you def. have a winning load there.

Rube Burrows

Very nice. I wonder how much. I would love one or maybe a super wrangler in .22 mag with the adjustable rear sights like he talks about in the video.

Rube Burrows

At more than triple the price it was before. I love TB and I am glad its back. I am also glad I did not pay the absolutely crazy prices some people were getting for it when the market dried up.

I guess 45 per 9 oz is better than the crazy prices.

Rube Burrows

Very nice pair of revolvers.

Rube Burrows

Where ever you are I hope your day of birth is a good one .

Rube Burrows

Beautiful rifle. Love that its still putting in work.

Rube Burrows

Good job and great looking pair of shooters.

One of my go to loadings is a 300 grain bullet with a healthy dose of H110.

Rube Burrows

Oh, these will be nice.

I have a revolver that should be in today from Alan Harton. Bisley Blackhawk 45.

Rube Burrows

That was good. Thanks for sharing.

Rube Burrows

I kept checking with no luck. I was just about to give up hope. Glad its back.

Rube Burrows

Im about 30 min north of New Orleans and that is plenty close enough for me. Too close sometimes.

Rube Burrows

read the question wrong. Disreguard.

Rube Burrows

So very sorry for your loss

Rube Burrows

Man at the history in that place. So cool. Thanks for sharing.

Rube Burrows

Plowboy got himself a good one with that one. Should get any critter in north america to re-think its life decisions on attacking him.

Rube Burrows

Sad news today that Val Kilmer has passed.

His role as Doc will always be tops.

Thanks for sharing your memories and photos of JT. By all accounts he was a great man. I never knew him personally but have always admired his work as well as the other gun writers of his kind.

My mother in law has been battling cancer for about 6 years. She was stage 4 when first diagnosed and started treatments. They initially gave her 18 to 24 months. Here we are 6 years later and she's still with us, but now it has progressed to the point that treatments are no longer an option. She n...

Rube Burrows

Sad indeed for his family, friends and those of us who admired his work.

Rube Burrows

He will be a great loss to the shooting community but more importantly his friends and family.

Rube Burrows

I have been getting an Error message everytime I have tried to get on here for the last few days. Glad to see it back.

Rube Burrows

Pretty amazing stuff there.

Rube Burrows

Thank you. It's been a busy last few weeks. I do appreciate the birthday wishes though.

Rube Burrows

Dont know what its worth but it sure is pretty. I did not know they made them in 38-55. I have always wanted one of the Savage 1899s but never wanted to fool with the most commonly seen 300. If I ever saw one locally in 38-55 or 30-30 I would definitely have my interest peeked.

Rube Burrows

Happy these are being reposted. Good information such as this should not be lost.

Rube Burrows

Turned out to be a fine looking shooter. Thanks for sharing.

Rube Burrows

I like the video a LOT. I like the gun a lot too. I prefer stainless, and I appreciate the receiver sight. My thought is that the gun would be more useful in 444 given the frame size. OTOH, I doubt there is a 44 mag load that could stretch that frame... still don't know the twist rate of the smith,...

Rube Burrows

Thanks for the info guys. I assumed that the S&W 1854 could handle the Ruger Only Loads. I have been shooting them in it for a couple weeks now and have not seen any problems. When it comes to the traditional lever guns, that is what I love most. For some reason this one just spoke to me when I ...

Rube Burrows

So, in the manual it says that 45 +P ammo is not recommended.

Is this just something they put in there to cover their butts?

In my Ruger Blackhawk I shoot a 300g XTP bullet with 23g of H110.

I would think that the 336/clone could handle that but definitely dont want this S&W to come apart.

Rube Burrows

Thank you Craig. This information has been so valuable to me over the years when loading for my 45 Colt Blackhawks. I am glad to see it again.

Hard to beat. Now you'll have those memories forever.
