Let's see 'em!

Post - 64 Model 94 with Lyman sight, .30 - 30.

[MAD-AS-HELL]

isn’t that the type of rifle pointed at Palin at that art show in New York?

[ought-six]

The Winchester 94 is a fun rifle to shoot. As far as accuracy, it is not a tack-driver, especially with iron sights, but it will get the job done up to 125 - 150 yards; anything much beyond that is cloaked in a lot of luck.

I didn’t hear about that one. Got a link?

bought my son who was around 13 when I bought it for him 4 years ago a pre-64..actually made in 1951. Nice gun, nice shooter.

[Vaquero]

no, that one was a bolt action, with scope this is a lever action without scope.

Think posting up what you've got is a good idea? Even if McCain wins, you've still got a 'Rat Congress with possibly a 60-vote, filibuster-proof 'Rat senatorial majority staring down your throat for the next two years.

Lever actions are/can be fun. I do not hold the 30-30 in high regard. Many years ago I was pig hunting on the Hunter Ligette base in Kalifornia. We spotted a very large boar for the time - around 600 pounds. The guy I was with saw his first so it was his kill. He shot it three times with a 30-30 and the dust just puffed up off the animal. I finished with one shot from my 7x57 clean through the boiler room. When we cleaned the hog all three 30-30 bullets were stuck in the cartilage over the ribs. Never penetrated.

Had a tour of the Savage Arms plant yesterday - quite the operation. Met Ron coburn, and had quite the chat/discussion. Savage is going places again.

I have a similar rifle, the Marlin 336 in 30/30 Win

“I finished with one shot from my 7x57”

... a serious can of woop-a$#!

Is that a Bisley conversion or an Acusport? I love the Bisley grip - got 3 of ‘em.

[mad_as_he$$]

Yes, I really do not like to wound or damage an animal and then track it for hours in brush or the hills. I want them down and out ASAP. this week I was bird hunting and one of guys I was with (newbie to birds) was shooting a 20 ga with #8’s at chukars. He was wounding to many and the dog could not get to them so I made him drive back to town 90 miles and get some #6’s. Result more dead birds that were easily picked up and enjoyed!!! Easier on the dog and not just feeding the coyotes.

[mr_hammer]

Right tool for every job I always say!

[Shooter 2.5]

Yes, it's a great idea. If you don't want to post what you have, you can always post what other people have. Here's a person who owns these guns.

One of my favorites. Commonly called the "jungle carbine," it was a slimmed-down and weight-trimmed version of the old No.1 Mk4 for paratroopers.

Es that a Bisley conversion or an Acusport? I love the Bisley grip - got 3 of ‘em.

It's a Bisley in 45 LC.

I've also got one in 357.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

Vaquero right? It’s the older version. The new version has the rubber grips. I have one in the .44. They are nice shooters.
