Mojave Lever Crew - Roll Call!

[GeeBee49]

Oh my, you guys have been busy...

Those are some great guns

And we're talking about getting more. The cowboy addiction is official.

I think I found my next lever action so the .41 magnum will have to wait.
Winchester Model 1892 Large Loop Carbine in .45 Colt. It also comes in .357 mag, .44 Rem mag and .44-40 Win.

Sneak peek.

Not only is that CCH great but that walnut is pretty outstanding too! Wow! Congrats!

Here's a purty. Belongs to a friend. 2nd gen but unfortunately been refinished. However, still a looker:



The wife's Golden Boy. She calls her Henrietta:



This one we call Berttie:



Great CCH, forearm a little plain but the stock is a rocking:

[GeeBee49]

Now those are some very nice guns, thanks for the pics. I like it that your wife calls hers Henrietta.

I saw an Uberti Cattleman at a bass pro and it was beautiful.

This damn lever fever has got me. Now I’ve got Big Bore ‘94 375 Winchesters on my watchlist!

Ahh, welcome to the Mojave Lever Crew. We're like this for a reason!

I have the Uberti copy in .45 Colt, with custom maple grips. I'm looking for another SAA/SAA clone, but this time I want one in either 38-40 or 44-40. I posted pics of mine a while ago, but I'm hoping you folks won't mind if I post it again. :

Don't mind the pics at all 'boss. There's a Cimarron SA in .44-40, blued with 5.5" barrel for $537. There ya go! Tombstone Tactical, p. 3.

Berttie was hers too, but she gave him to me a while back

I made the mistake of looking around on the Skinner sights website, while trying to figure out what I wanted to put on either my old 70's Marlin in 30WCF or my 20" 45 Colt 1894 Cowboy. I decided to go with Black Gold on the octagon barrel, and I'll swap the Williams from the 45 to the 3030. Or I may go with a red dot on it, since it's a hunting rifle.

But back to the topic at hand, those Skinner color case hardened sights are sexxxyyyyy, and now I'm on the lookout for a near-perfect case hardened gun to put them on. I just can't decide if a CCH Skinner sight would look good on my 24" blued 1894 Cowboy in 45 Colt, if I need a whole new rifle. The 24", with an Alaskan sight would be pretty rad...

Great guns, men! Good grief.

Outstanding!

I think a blued rifle would look better with blued sights and CCH sights should definitely go on a CCH rifle. Skinner and Henry seem to go together well so a whole new rifle could be a Big Boy Color Case Hardened Side Gate in 357 mag, 44 mag or 45 Colt.

^ That's similar to what I'm thinking, especially since until a couple weeks ago I never have owned a Henry, and still don't own a centerfire one. (I'll be picking up the Golden Boy I got recently on Monday afternoon. )

Thanks for the pointer, I did not know of Tombstone Tactical. Yeah - I know I can probably order one, but I'm looking to find one locally at a gun show..... Cash and carry, no tax, that sort of thing. Plus, I prefer to "taste, touch, and feel" guns before I buy, if possible.

So far, I've only seen one in 44-40, and that was on a table at a gun show in upstate WA when I was traveling for work.

That's good, it's always fun picking up a new gun. I just picked up a SA revolver earlier this week.
I only have one Henry right now and it's a brass frame Big Boy Classic in .45 Colt. I have a couple on order but with the way things are right now I don't know when they will arrive.

This one we call Berttie:

People tend to complain about the red stain on the Uberti stocks, but I think it gives a good contrast against the CCH.

It also looks like the wood fit where the grip meets the receiver is actually better than on my Winchester. It looks pretty flush on your Uberti and on my Winchester the wood is noticeably proud where it meets the receiver.
