      HW, thank you for another thick, juicy slice of edumification! Always! appreciated. Thanks too for more great photos. And I need to keep some Skidmore's around here.

      Congrats to your buddy on a great hunt. And there's another! rifle I never knew I couldn't live without. .308 Marlin! That barrel length, magazine and stock shape is iconic Marlin (.45-70, .444 Marlin) and aesthetically speaking it consists of some of the best proportions of any long gun.

          The dimensions and overall profile remind me of my BLR.

            HW, Thanks again for the detailed and informative post. Skidmore has been ordered, and is on the way.

            Also - Pronghorn hair gets on everything.

            I've got deer tags for both here in Idaho as well as Wyoming in a couple of weeks. I'm thinking very seriously about hunting with my Winchester 25-35 carbine. I wish I had one of your knives to take with me (as they are beautiful and finely crafted), but I'll have to settle for my store-bought ones for now.
            Always looking for vintage Winchester and Marlin lever action rifles. Looking to sell? Know of one for sale? Drop me a line!

                I think you'll have to post up a picture of the 2 Marlins to even be considered
                It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

                      I hope yours arrives in a timely manner. I'm starting to think my levers in .357 magnum are not going to happen.
                      I like the 20" octagonal barrel on that 1873 but I don't own a lever action with a pistol grip stock. I've read that some shooters think the recoil from .41 and .44 magnum is easier to handle with a pistol grip stock. Maybe someone here has experience shooting both.

                          I may have posted them here on this site, somewhere. I cant log onto Photobucket any longer. But I will try.

                              I just ordered it yesterday off of Gunbroker. My first purchase off of Gunbroker. We shall see.
