Marlinman, myself, and a friend of ours hit the show 10 minutes before opening and there was about 100 people ahead of us. Great show! Lots and lots of firearms and maybe only 1 or 2 tables of non-firearm stuff. No mad rush for ammo or black rifles either. Firearm prices all seemed to be negotiable. Tons of quality vintage levers. Marlinman got a heck of a deal, on a repro 32-20 Bisley and I snagged these treasures, for the cost of 2 pounds of 748.

Yea, show was great! Got a few pounds of powder for a reasonable price of $30. Also picked up this great Dakota Bisley 5 1/2" in my favorite caliber, .32-20! $250 out the door!

jdad you no good dirty lowdown packalumer xyz so-and-so and everything else...
I had to spend the day putting up WINDOW TREATMENTS at my mother-in-law's house. No man should ever put up WINDOW TREATMENTS unless it's his job. As a matter of fact, unless it's a guy's job no man should even say WINDOW TREATMENT. Ever.

I feel bad for me. Tomorrow is out.

I feel for you Quinn - I really do. I've spent plenty of weekends doing "honey-do" chores I won't admit to here

$250?!? Val, don't you feel quilty STEALING that gun! Lucky dog!!! I stopped by the "Dixie Gun & Knife Show" today briefly (Charlotte, NC). Everyone seemed darn proud of what they wer selling - at least by the prices they were asking! Lots of "non-gun" tables to wad through as well...

Congratulations!!!

I didn't buy any guns, but I came home with a book and a nice Lyman globe front sight with a tin of inserts for $20. I didn't think that was too bad. Did you see that lever action in .256 Win? I think it was a Savage or Marlin. Now I can't remember

There was also a .30 carbine version on another table.
Ha Quinn, I feel for you. Nothin' like a day at the inlaws

The Rickreall gun show is the one show, besides our clubs August show, that I look forward to twice a year. Vall helped a good friend of ours picked up a Remington 12C, with a Wollensak scope and correct mounts, for under $500. Lots of "legal" antique Winchester's and Marlin's also spread all over the room.

Well I blew it and didn't go. Planing to go on the hunt for bear and cougar in the morning with my lever. I'm glad you all had fun. That is pone of the best gs in the state.

Marlinman, I can see you really got a deal. It shows, the drool I mean. On your pants.

Very similar to the Pa. gunshow here in Harrisburg. LOTS of good stuff and priced reasonably.

A Colt Shooting Master in 38 Spl. with factory ivories for $900. It had an altered hammer. I offered $500 for the grips. No way Jose. A 95% 1892 Winchester in 25-20 with a 32" Stevens scope for $2800-cash--3200 credit. I "HAD" to have this, but I let common sense prevail---offered the guy 22--and got laughed at---rightfully so.--

Every kind of black rifle you would want--all priced fairly right. I did manage to snag 120 Super X 30-30 , 20 UMC 45-85, 50 R-P 32-20, 40 .32 Remington for $30 and an original Lyman tang sight for a Colt Lightning for $60. (highway robbery

BTW--Marlinman---with a man of your caliber (no pun intended

)and the great quality of American arms you indulge in, why are you buying that Italian junk?-------------

Well first because I'm cheap, second because I want to save my money for Marlins and singleshots, and third because I have one Colt, so I don't want to own two and get mistaken for a Colt collector!

Oh, and I might have mentioned I LOVE the .32-20 caliber!

Phooey. which show was it you guys attended? We had a Collectors West show here in Medford this weekend, but I didn't go. I can't see spending $6 just to get in the door.

You are exonerated

Me too! (in the future, please don't tell the whole world about purchasing foreign junk----I don't tell nobody about a pair of Chinese SKS's I have

)

Vall, I do believe you done real good on that deal.I know what you mean about the 32wcf, it is just hard to beat in a long gun or a handgun. I had a S&W and a Colt 32wcf years ago but still don't have a single action. That should make a great carry gun.

marlinman93 · Post by **marlinman93** » Sun Dec 14, 2008 10:34 pm

Thanks Jerry! I know you appreciate the .32-20 as well! I just don't think there is much I can find wrong with it. Cheap to reload for, easy to find brass and bullets, low recoil, and really accurate in almost every gun I've ever owned. My favorite shooting rifle is a 1894 Marlin with special order 28" barrel, chambered in .32-20! I rarely go to the range to shoot that it doesn't go along.-Vall
