The CZickness XLII looking towards the FGE

[Biggredchev]

Speaking of dinosaurs, I always thought the Marlin lever action that Chris Pratt's character in Jurassic World carried was a nice looking rifle.


Please ignore the horrible trigger discipline...

Same. It used to say on the Marlin website it was rated for Trex hunting. Appears theyve changed it up since the last time i looked.

45-70 an oldie, but still useful cartridge.

I'm not a lever action guy, but I sure appreciate the looks of that gun.

That's a very big BOOMER in a very short package.

I like it

After the Jurassic Park movie was released, those rifles were hard to get, and were high priced!!! I remember being in a gun shop and a customer walked in asking, "Do you have that T-Rex killer rifle??"

I love the look of these! I have absolutely no reason that I can get one and justify it to my wife or myself.

Morning all!
I got the quad cranked up last night. 9:35PM for those of you wondering. 10PM is when I actually need to keep quiet. I was able to remove a broken bolt that holds the clutch bracket in place, so a big win there. The second bolt is also broken, but hopefully I'll get it removed as well. It's location isn't quite as accessible as the first one. The bracket that I ordered should be in today, so hopefully I'll be able to get it installed next week and remove the MacGyver-inspired solution that the previous owner instituted.

Nobody needs/wants a fun Tippman 22 or some 308 ammo?

Two quarts low? Wonder if it was multi grade or synthetic.

If i wasnt almost finished with one project and about to start another i would’ve taken it by now lol.

This is on deck. Never tinkered with 1911s before so i picked this up for $400 off another local INGOr. Itll probably end up being Mrs.BRCs christmas present when its finished and ill know a boat load more about the platform. This is the only tinkering that has been done thus far (minus cleaning, oiling, polishing the barrel and other bits). I plan (among other things) to turn the barrel flush with the bushing and re-bevel it. I should have looked through the 1911 thread before touching it.

Its a perfect start for a 1911 newbie though lol.

I just picked up the blued version with the laminate stock, my Ashley Express rail and sights like that should be showing up today.

We will need to see a pic of this when possible.

No free lunches. Gotta earn that big girl room.
I think she'll appreciate the end result more as well.

Mrs.BRC and I went to the range wgen i got off work. I had a limited supply of .45 but out of 24 rounds she put 19 on a 10” plate at 10 yards with the RI 1911 (really good for her). Now that i know she shoots it well i have no problem building it for her christmas present.

45-70 is one those cartridges which people have loaded all over the map. In that rifle it will drop anything on the continent and a few others, don't know about dinosaurs, I've never hunted them.
