A 1892 Marlin in 32. I have a centerfire pin, dies, bullets on the way. I am going to reform some 32 S&W brass so I can shoot it. I has a Lyman tang peep sight and a #5 front sight. Really looking...
I am meeting a guy today to (hopefully) purchase a 1892 Marlin in .32. It supposedly has a mint bore, a Lyman tang peep sight and a beech/Lyman front sight all in excellent original condition. I'm...

All the Southbend 9B's use change gears with no quick change gear boxes. The 9A has the quick change gear box.

I know Will and he is very meticulous at what he does. I'm sure he will do fine with his new venture.

I had a Ruger #1 in 45/70 with the nicest figured stock I have ever seen on a #1. I let it go. I also had a pre war Mauser sporter type A in 7x57 I wish I would have kept..

I have a serious love for pump 22 rifles. I own several and think the Remington 121 is the finest pump 22 ever made. Also you got great price on it.

After school and the chores were done I would grab a rifle and stay in the woods until heard the bell ring. I sure miss those days.

Nice rifle. I have only seen one (for sale) in person and yours is way better than that one. Plus you got a heck of a good buy on it.

I have shot a lot of the 1938 nazi ammo and have yet to have a dud. I would open the can and see what you've got.
