Movie Marlin

[trapper9260]

I had watch Wind River for what you all said about it on here and was a good movie. Did not show if he done anything about the mountain lions . Good show otherwise nice to see a movie is base on a true story then too many of the fakes .

ever notice how that when they shoot the heavier lever actions.....say 45-70....there is NO RECOIL.

the appear to be shooting .22's

In Yellowstone Costner said the '94 is the one his dad carried and used.

In a different vein I was watching an episode of Wagon Train last week and Clint came riding into a gunfight shooting his 1873 Colt Model P and fired it eight times without reloading.

Steve...........

Ever seen Free Range? In one scene , Kevin Costner shoots his SAA 13 times. No breaks, no reloading, just sustained fire. Magic.


From Wind River, my favorite quote: “Luck don’t live out here.”

Was watching Joe Kidd last night and loved the Savage 1899 and the Mauser Broomhandle. The movie was supposed to be 1900 New Mexico, so the Savage was correct. Not sure about the Broomhandle.

In 1900, the broom handle Mauser was "the hot setup" in many circles, especially if the owner could also afford the Savage rifle which cost about twice what an 1894 Win. cost.

Wind River was written and directed by Taylor Sheridan, the creator of the Yellowstone TV show. Lots of lever guns in that one too. He must be a fan!

FWIW In the modern vein, when Walt Longmire decided someone needed shootin’ he grabbed his Winnie 94. In Yellowstone John Dutten doesn’t have many scenes where he doesn’t have his 94 near to hand either.

Wind River (and I’d forgotten Jurassic World) is probably the main reason the 1895 SBL sells like hotcakes

i got one a few years ago ,they are a great gun and a hoot to shoot.

I liked Wind River so much I bought the DVD. Drove through the actual Wind River area and it was very much like depicted in the movie. ... and, yes, he trimmed those cases like he was mowing the lawn.

don't know why but made me think of, well not a marlin, and I am a big fan of marlin lever actions, but a winchester in a movie-- recently saw the original billy jack movie online--wow, like I was in a time warp., I remember seeing that in movie theatre a long time ago, and at the time it was kind of like one of those game-changer movies.

In one of the John Wayne movies, where they are on a raft in some river rapids, he is holding and shooting a Daisy 94 BB gun. I guess if it went overboard, it wasn't like losing a 92.
