Sweet, that reminds me of the movie "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly" where Frenchie (the mexican guy?) goes into the gun shop and starts tearing apart guns until he builds one he likes!
Got the rat rod to keep it in?
Remington single shot 22 rifle. May dad got it when he was 16. Somewhere in the 1940's.
Still have it. Split the stock on the bottom side on a coon hunt back in the 70's. Lost the broken piece and haven't tried to fix it.
One day I may run across another old Remington with a good stock. Still...
If you really want to send it to Potterfield find his first name. Most companies follow the same email set up:
Name.Potterfield@midwayusa.com
You may be surprised and get to him. Good luck either way. You'll get the order sooner or later sans a couple of price increases.
Let's see; sounds like you're not chasing wild women, spending money in a bar all night, or doing anything illegal. I think it's clean, all American fun. Carry on.
Use the 6/12 method. In 6 or 12 months from now will you really miss the money you spent?
15 years from now you may have something really worth a lot. Just think back on what a Colt Python sold new for!
Not buying remorse on that one for lots of folks!
buy two from here, keep one and start trading with the second one. Also there is a very good deal on a 9mm Browning Hi Power made in Belgium on the board. You have a good problem to have.
I'm not up on the Marlin, but the older ones had a different ejection than the new ones and some prefere it. I know there are other differences that maybe someone else can expand on. I personally like the aged wood and believe workmanship is better on the older ones.
got a fingerprint safe off of Ebay last year. had to call the vendor to set up but it works relatively fast. It is a 2 shelf unit about 12 x 12 x 12. So far works good. I think I paid about $150 for it.
