    I'm done - Winchester 1892 collection, completed!

    I found the last piece to the collection, the only one I was missing - an 1892 rifle in 44-40. Good wood, good screws, shiny bore, made in 1913. I now have all four rifles and all four carbines.



    Always looking for vintage Winchester and Marlin lever action rifles. Looking to sell? Know of one for sale? Drop me a line!

              Good job!

              Maybe soon you'll be able to buy some factory steel loads for dove.

                  Oh, I can find them and buy them, I just don't like paying the price. Although - I did find a couple of cheap boxes at the gun show Sunday!

                          Nope, done. With the caveat that I'm always open to upgrading.

                                              That's some smooth instigation, I've taught you well grasshopper.
                                              Now remember, good instigation should be followed up with enabling. So start posting links to the ones on the auction sites for him.
