M70 222 (22 Hornet rechamber)
M52B Sporter
1885 LowWall 22rf

I had a nice M65 (218 Bee), M61 and M63, but sold them to finance other madness. And I've had a number of 1894's and 1892's over the years, but have just never been able to hang onto them.

Congratulations on owning some VERY rare 70s....

These two:

A 55 in .30WCF, and a 53 in .25-20.

M1906 pump action rifle 22 short, long, long rifle

M12 12 gauge, field grade, two barrels modified and full choke

M12 12 gauge, "Featherweight" field grade improved cylinder barrel

Here's 4 of them, but the extreme weather has a new mcmillan edge on it now.



Much better that way.

Also put my pre 64 fwt back in its original stock and threw a leupy 3.5-10x40 with CDS on it. Now she rocks....



My fn pbr xp 300wsm should get honorable mentions too since it started out as a winchester classic action and then was improved on:

Well ,i can for the moment!! it does change!! sorry no pictures yet my photographer is on strike!

1886 Deluxe extra lightweight in 45-70

Model 37 .410 single shot (my first gun, bought new in 1951)
1885 Hiwall single shot .30-40 Krag
1885 Hiwall single shot .38-40 WCF (found in an abandoned line shack in northern NV by me in 1955, in exc cond. once I got the layer of dried axle grease off it).

I have a few others but these are my favorites. Sorry I can't do pix, all of these are in excellent, used condition and I shoot them fairly regularly.
