Standard Win. Mod. 94, Mid-2 million serial no. range. I bought it on Gunbroker for $450 shipping included. The photos made the rifle look pretty rough, which was what I wanted for a truck gun. But, it must have been the lighting, because when it arrived it still had pretty good bluing and a good bore. The stock needed refinished, which I did, and it even has some semi-fancy grain in the butt stock.
Added another to the group today. Another oldie. Rem. Model 582. Bolt action, tube fed, walnut stock. Metal is about 95% and wood is good with the usual scuff and wear marks but no big dings. I think they quit making these in the 80s and I know that the clip fed, target version has a rep for good accuracy. A good addition to my (I won't call it a collection) group of 22s. Inexpensive at $134. out the door
Been looking for a 16" stainless Rossi R92 lever gun in .357. Might have to settle for a .44 though.

I picked up a Ruger Charger yesterday.
The adaptor and brace are on the way.
I've wanted to do this for quite some time and it's finally happening.
I'm a real fan of braced pistols with 8-10" barrels.

Glock 19, after many years of "I'll never own a plastic gun" I realized just what the longevity of that gun is. I hope I don't regret it.

I was a glock denier for many years, now I have a glock 19 and it’s one of my fav guns to shoot. Legendary reliability EXCEPT twice now it’s disassembled itself on dry fire after chamber clearing. Dunno what that’s about but I still love it. I have fiber optic sights on it and they are amazing.Originally Posted by NC_JEFF
Well, it’s not a “gun” but it sure feels like one. Or more like a space gun, laser beam, stealth rat fighter. This is a modern, semi auto, air powered 25cal bull pup. Trigger is weird but good, barrel and air tank are titanium, 2 pressure gages, for tank and regulator, and built in suppressor. It will shoot in low power mode for maybe 100 shots on a tank, high power much less. ZERO recoil. Like, none. Shooting lead free pellets in my yard in town and having a blast! Only down side is the bike pump thing that pumps it back up to 5000psi (!) is a bit of a workout!
1895 Marlin CBA in 45-70. Dandy little rifle
Went in to our local Cabellas the other day and what did I spy but a krag on the used gun rack , looked it over , it is a 1894 30 US govt that has been sportered. thats OK I have an affliction for Krags so I added it to my collection.
It arrived yesterday afternoon about 3:00 PM. An 1889 Marlin lever rifle in 32-20. Am in process of ordering the usual parts for that rifle, an ejector and firing pin. Pretty fair old piece for 126 years old.

A full sporter, Remington O3-A3, 30-06. Cabela's just got it in and the price was very right so it followed me home. It should be a great low power load shooter. If nothing else, it's purrty and I enjoy owning it.
Nice rifle, after reading your other thread about it, I was figuring it would find a good home with you. Oughta be a great cast shooter.A full sporter, Remington O3-A3, 30-06.

Browning BL22. About 98%, made in 1969 according to Browning. Paid $400 for it.
Binky, i have a 582 that i've owned since 1985. Probably the best .22 i've ever owned, and since 1967 i've had a few..

Thanks for the comeback! I have (and do) own many 22s, From $25. Rem.66 to $700. wood and steel, target units. Love them all. I have owned more than I do now but a few years ago life got in the way and some went away. (I miss my Marlin Mountie!) I assume you have been lurking for a while and decided to jump in. This is a great place. Many fields of interest here with a wealth of knowledge to be had. Enjoy!
Waiting for a NAA Earl in .22 mag I ordered yesterday from Classic Firearms. With tax, shipping and a 14$ warrenty it was just over 300$. We'll see if I can get
good enough with it to think about carrying it regularly.
I truly believe we need to get back to basics.
Get right with the Lord.
Get back to the land.
Get back to thinking like our forefathers thought.
May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you
and give you His peace. Let all of the earth – all of His creation – worship and praise His name! Make His
praise glorious!
Latest is a Savage 24 in 222/20ga with a 4x Redfield on it.
There is no problem so great, that it cannot be solved by the proper application of high explosives.
I have one of those, excellent outfit, but wth a bear of a trigger. Not much can be done with it from what I hear.
Delivers the good with the slugs I have, plenty of whoompum!
