people, I am NOT "most people", but I LOVE the history behind the things. The 5 "W"s and how of the things fascinates me.

You have the NEATEST stuff! You really should publish a book (reply)

Is that the version with rack and pinion for the lever? (reply)

Those are truly the Rolls Royce of lever guns!

pretty rare gun. i have bid on them for years, and finally got this one a few years back. very smooth action...some say the smoothest of all lever actions.

Is that a Bullard? (reply)

just my first impression on opening the post. It's also not a falling/rolling block (or whatever the Stevens Favorite is). I really should have my coffee before logging in.

hint : not a stevens and it is a model 1886 [ nm ] (reply)

First glance... (reply)

(I've not yet had my coffee) revealed a Stevens Favorite with a tubular magazine. Very interesting rifle, never seen one in person.

still here, still puttering and finding.....

this is one that I really like, very smooth action, slender but still a large rifle

the rifle is my favorite caliber - 45/70

the revolver also a favorite caliber - 45 colt
