I'll say this ONCE. A law is not "UNConstitutional" until a pertinant body of jurisprudence sez it is. It is not up to any public or private citizen to choose what laws they will or not obey without some consequence. You are all entitled to your OPINIONS on what is unConstitutional, but u...

I've stayed outta this fray as I probably don't have anything positive to contribute. But, I think ScottT is on the money here... and the reasons I feel this way are based mostly on my experience, knowledge and logical conclusions of a somewhat rational person, (in that any of us are). Any of which ...

Prayers up Mike. Maintain that positive outlook. Had my surgery 28 years ago, grerat advances since then. Came home from the hospital to a son w/chicken pox. Seems I never had it as a kid... grrrr. As a result I know lots of ways to scratch inside a cast!

Post '64 to '82 scintered steel won't take a "rust blue". 'Tis another process entirely. VERY few others have replicated it.

I don't have a pic of just the holster, but generally, when hunting I wear an old Bianchi belt and a Bill French cross-draw for the SAA he made for my wife. It sits a little lower than normal on the belt, with the hammer about level with the top of the belt. It is raked at about 35Âº degrees from ve...

I have a Centennial barrel I'm putting on a '94 receiver for my son. He really wants the full-length mag tube, but... I'm leaving that decision for when I get done with a couple of repairs to the receiver and have hit refinished. Wish now that I'd bought two of them while Numrich still had them.

Here's a pic my missus' levergun:

Kim,

I don't think so; I think it took longest to go from 20,000 to 50,000, and it's accelerated after that.

jac,

Thanks, I think it sruck just the right balance of serious game & levity. Like golf, for the vast mjority of us, it's a blend of entertainment and competition.

Griff

Plenty of vintage 1894 Winchesters were made in just such a configuration, then standardization and the Model 64 was made to meet the demand; then a dry spell. Then in '71 came the NRA Centennial commemorative, which gave way to the Model 64A and another dry spell; interspersed with a couple of simi...

What do you think? Positive, or ?

Congrats!

I've heard tell that the "practicing thing" works!

Griff

Best wishes and continued success.

Griff

I, too, like the shorty 3 - 3-Â½" "Storekeeper" configurations better than the "Sheriff" models. Very nice, what caliber?

And ScottT; what a TEASE! How dare you post a pic of a sweet holster like that and not give any details!

Griff

Yep, I shoulda specified the Treso. My ASM 1851 uses the same 12-24 nipple as my Colts, but most ASMs use a 5mm thread. But, according to VTI the Walker & Dragoons take the same nipple. Get you a metric thread pitch guage, it'll tell for certain.

Griff

Sounds like a great trip! Pictures... don't forget pics. I had to tuurn down a trip to AK this year as my truck is too long for Canada; another reason it's for sale, the other'n is just right; maybe I'll get another chance.

Good luck and be safe.

:D :D Congrats to England! The people have spoken in their latest election & threw the bums out :!: The election threw out the libs & installed conservative candidates across the nation including the mayorship of London. This bodes well for our cousins acros the pond. Gad Zooks I feel alive...

Yep.

Thanks all for the help, I made a tool out of a metric 6 side socket (I used 5.5mm, should have used 5mm though) and got all the nipples out easily. The one that was clogged I tried to drill back out but that does not look like it will work, and my smith told me he has nipples that may fit, but app...

Sort thru the Wad Survey over on the Shiloh BP forum.

I know what plastic shot cups leave behind in the barrels of my shotgun with BP; it's NOT someting I'd like to clean from a rifled barrel!

Griff

Don't take this the wrong way, but my first thought when I read your topic title was, "Why? There's a perfectly good .45-70 in the form of a Browning/Winchester 1886!" But, that might simply stem from the fact that I'm an uinrepentent Winchester fan!

Now, THAT'S a "cowboy combo"!

Looking forward to it. I'll be back in town by the last week in May (cause I'm taking it off and going shootin'!) Don't know anything about a new range.

And, it looks like lunch is off, cause they just sent thru my permits. Off to view the sights along the byways of NH and VT.

Any NH levergunners around the Greenland, NH area. I'm sittin' here, thinking about the big breakfast I just had, and the word "LUNCH" popped into my head!

I'm here to tell you that crossing that line is sometimes an invisible mark in one's life.

Very nice 94. I think you did great in getting it. Wish my two carbines from that era still had the original sights.
