A lever action section huh? Wow, that's all I needed was another section to check. Ok, here's my lever action post:<P>I own a lever action. Marlin .30-30 made in late 1890's. I have a pic of my great grandpa holding in about 1911. He standing with two friends and the sorriest looking hound dog I ever saw. Great pic. Maybe I'll post it sometime.<P>Wade

I saw a Win 94/22 for sale the other day. I had sticker shock! $400.00 I did not think my ol lever gun was worth that. Not gonna sell it it shoot too well, anyway dad gave to me as christmas gift loooonnnng time ago in a place far far away...

This is truely an honor to have a lever action spot. On second thought is just to keep lever action talkers from poluting the other spots? That's a joke, they have always been my favorite.

That was fast, did anybody ever ask Shooters for a new folder.<BR>Any way mine is the Marlin 1895M 450. Set Wild West Guns Ghost ring sight w/fibre optic post for 100 yards, and the Burris 2.75x Scout scope mounted on the Ashley scout mount for 150 yards.<BR>The only complaint I have is the god-awfull noise. When I take it to the range. They clear benches on both sides.<P>Phil

Hey Grayghost.You been here before??I'm "toms" from the OTHER site.I changed my name again.~~~~~~toms

Welcome Toms: Yea! I've been kind of just floatin all around the net. Just tryin to fit in here and there. Try to keep the same Handle, haven't had a problem with that yet! Been using it ever since I started driving truck. Some 30+ Years.<P>Phil

BW, I was just at your site and left a note for Doc, Toms and the rest of the guys asking them to move here. I think that would be great.......deadeye

Toms I didn't realize you were here already. How many alias's do you have now? .......deadeye

Don't forget me! I found this site, actually I followed everyone else, then done seen this leverguns board and had to walk in.<BR>Toms... Those stainless M92 45LC's are sold out again(at the disrtubutors). Word is they don't know when a shipment will come in, and the demand is very high on account of the cowboy action shooting sport, they expect the sell out in short order. He'll keep looking, I'll keep waiting, but may go the stainless Guide Gun route. But I hate those dang ports! Time will tell... <BR>Well, anyway he ordered me a stainless 22 bolt action rifle. ~~~Suluuq

<B>Very nice too see some of you making it over here!</B><P>I know this website is faster than mine, and whenever there's a problem, the webdude is easy to find! <P>Thanks Rick!<P>Oh yeah...<P>Mines a Marlin 444SS, got about a 22" barrel and the pistol grip style stock. I've added Asley Outdoors Ghost Rings sights.<P><P>------------------<BR>Brian<BR><A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/bw_99835/" TARGET=_blank>The 416 Taylor WebPage!</A>

A month and a half ago I bought a Marlin 1895, and haven't had a chance to fire it yet. It has a straight stock and a 22" microgroove barrel. Does anyone else have this configuration? I ask because I find I can not position my shooting hand correctly with three fingers in the lever, and need to put my pinky behind the trigger guard as though I were wearing gloves. Does anyone else shoot their .45-70 this way? I am concerned about how the rifle will behave in recoil with my little finger behind the trigger guard. Why did the put such a small lever on that rifle?

Youper: Wild West Guns, will fix you right up for about a $100 Bucks. They make both a medium, and a large lever, for using gloves in cold weather. I'm waiting for one my self.<P>Phil

Thanks. Where can I find these guys?

Youper: Sorry, I think its: <A HREF="http://www.wildwestguns.com" TARGET=_blank>www.wildwestguns.com</A><P>Phil

Hi Rusty,BW,Deadeye.~~~Hey deadeye,i have a different alias for every site now.I even changed my name at shooters.~~~~Hey Rusty,i talked to my dealer about a "navy arms"92 stainless.He told me the distributor has a few octagon and round barrel models in stock and in 45LC too.(20" barrels)The dealer told me the distributors name is GZANDERS but they will only talk to you if you have a FFL.<BR>~~~~~~toms

MARLIN STAINLESS GUIDEGUN<BR>I ran out of patients today,so i called Marlin to see about the stainless guideguns.Marlin told me they won't be ready and shipped out until april.~~~~~~~Darn~~~Maybe i'll buy something else now and start saving my pennies for april.~~~~~~toms

I only have 3 leverguns.All Marlins.A 336SC IN 30-30,A 375 MODEL IN 375 WIN,AND A 444SS IN 444 MARLIN.~~~~STILL NOT ENOUGH !!!!<BR>MORE MARLINS,MORE MARLINS,MORE MARLINS .<BR>~~~~~~~toms

If we can wish, I would wish for a Marlin 45/70 Sainless, 24" Octagon Barel, Laminated Stock, and Large Loop Lever. Wouldn't leave much to add to the factory rifle.<P>Phil
