Pretty neat. Hard to believe it's been 130 years. I think of 30-30 as a modern cartridge. :D

Now you've got me thinking about diving into the .30-30 AI pool. That Cimarron 1894 would be a good candidate.

Thanks for posting it is my first look at the Uberti. I have a few 30-30s, mostly Marlins, and it is a great ATV gun in the lower 48.

A kind gent sent me some brass recently and just wanted the postage fee!
So to celebrate 130th anniversary I loaded up 50+ rounds of 100gn plinkers and 5-6 gn of red dot and went and made some noise 😎.

Definitely a good one. I might be a bit prejudiced, but NOTHING improves the look of a mdl 94 receiver like case colors.

I have no use for the 30/30 but I have more of them than anything else.

I always enjoy watching "Cap-N-Ball" and listening to him. I have to translate for the wife. I told her you just catch the key words and figure the rest of it out. She asked me "What is a Sirty-Sirty"?

I called in a gun store yesterday and they had amongst a huge collection four 92 variants, a 9422, a Marlin 336 in 3030 and a Marlin 94.
It was good to see.
