I'm bored, just seeing if anyone out there is one. I have an 1922r M91-30 and an 1945r M44. Thinking of picking up another M91-30 and getting an original scope to mount on it. What do you all have?

This is the M44, lighter stock than mine.


This is the M91-30


I'll have to grab pics of my actual guns, don't think I have any on my cell atm.

I have a M91-30. Bought it on fathers day as a gift for myself and now I'm looking at getting a polymer stock, scope, stripper clips, and a few tins of ammo.

Oh, I also refinished the wood stock that I have so that it looks rather nice. We I get home in a few weeks I'll post some pics if I remember.

Rather have a Marlin 1895 in .45-70 that I could actually shoot. Nothing like a lever-action cannon.

Dad's got an 1895 with a 27" barrel and full-length 10 round (instead of 6) magazine, apparently one of only two made. It has seven notches in the stock too. These are still made new, but are also rather plentiful in shootable condition, just not a nigh-unique one such as his.

Less range, but same or better terminal ballistics, .45-70 having better tolerance for hot loads, in a weapon 10" shorter and a pound lighter.

In real application of owning firearms such as these, a bear <30 yards away is a much bigger problem than a bear >300 yards away.



You'd say 'thats just a Winchester'? Pffft. ***' pea-shooters compared to this.

sounds nice! my 1945 M44 has notches in the stock close to the action. 5 sets of 4 notches with one crossing them... I'm guessing kill counts XD

Still cleaning it, had slight rust in the bore but it's cocming out nicely.
