    No pics on their site, but they're good people to deal with.
    The 351 they're selling doesn't have a mag, but they are out there.

    I never owned one but always wanted one. If it were my gun, I'd chance the repro hammer. Have you looked for an original hammer? I don't think the repros were made with coil springs.

    There's a shop not far from me that has the following two rifles, and I'm staying away from that shop. The 1907 .351 is within reason, but the 1895 is out of my league.

    I saw quite a few .401 WSLs on GB but they seem pricey (and none have any bids).
    It's a great gun but you have to make your own ammo, and I haven't found any replacement recoil springs. Wolff has...

    I don't hunt but if I did, the .401 would be a good choice. I call it The Big Ouch. I have an old Hammer of Thor ad on the wall.

    I'm not sure if the swivel was original to the gun. It was there when I got it.
    I ended up with each of the WSL: .22, .32, .35, .351, .401.
    The .22 shoots 22 Winchester Auto, the only rifle to...

    2 vintage Winchesters

    Gotta love those old Winchesters. I brought my 1895 .30-40 and the 1910 Winchester Self Loader .401 to the range.
    You can tame the .30-40 with Red Dot and still ring the gong at 100 yds. Little...

    Bowling pin shoot

    My club is holding bowling pin shoots. No lead bullets, no hollow points, and...get this...no 38 Specials. 9mm is OK, but not 38s. Why not? They don't have the kinetic energy to knock the pins...

    I put some heat on that black build-up ring with a woodburning iron and sure enough, it began erasing away. It's actually pretty thick. I'll finish it tomorrow with a different heat tip, then...

    SnapCaps bullets are a smaller diameter than the factory ammo, same OAL, and the slide works easily with the Snapcaps. I loaded up a dummy round with a jacketed 124 gr bullet, and the slide stuck. ...

    Just before (rearward of) the flutes, there's a dark ring. It encircles the case mouth. It looks like a carbon ring but now I'm wondering.

    Great gun but apparently they're ammo fussy. There's a hole from the chamber down to the gas cylinder below that you have to be aware of. The gas piston in the gas cylinder gets fouled easily. ...
