The CZickness XXX: As in life, the twenties are just a blur...

I love that! I need to get a wheel gun at some point.

As Mcapo directed to me, a 686 SSR is an ideal starting point.

Wherever you end up in TX, you better let me come hunting!

 

[SarahG]

or did you mean?

If KJ buys an XD, I’ll ground him for a month. We can cerakote a SP5 for him.

Everyone needs some kind of a SAA or clone at some point. Sooner is better than later. I only have two, an Uberti in 45LC and a Texas Longhorn Arms in 44 mag. You are welcome to give them a spin anytime!

The 100+ year old Colts are investments that you can get out and enjoy.

It was. Son and I met Leadeye this morning, and now we both have lever guns. Came home, cleaned them, shot them, then cleaned them again. Lots of conversation, and smiles. Stellar day.

You have a Winchester, in a caliber that will kill anything in Texas. Count that as being most of the way there.

And it hits what I aim at. Very stiff trigger though. Do they all have a heavy trigger pull?

Which triggers did you order?

I ordered the flat blade 2 stage. I prefer 2 stage triggers and kind of like flat triggers too.

[MindfulMan]

Uberti’s rock!

Truth ! ..... here's mine. It's purdy, but it's not distressed.

 

[88E30M50]

Maybe call them as soon as they open tomorrow and revise the order?

I’m going to give that a try.

My uncle bought this one awhile back. He says I can shoot it next time I’m in Florida. I should really make a special trip...

I think she sold off quite a few of hers awhile back.

She did. I think it was a necessity for her.

Over the years I've noticed that it varies, that's the youngest Winchester I've ever owned so internally it may be the newest. The gun I picked up today was made in 1922 had a softer trigger, but I don't know if that is from nearly 100 years of use. I'm somewhat at a stand at times working on old guns, because I'm guessing about what the gun was like when it was new

That’s what I was thinking, but I don’t stop in there very often. Wasn’t sure.

Really sharp! That's got everything.

.44-40 manufactured in 1889. Engraved by Ron P. Knot in 2004. Ivory grips...pretty incredible.
