My posts don't count....
No more after today.
Winchester model 1894 made in 1908, 26" octagon barrel in 30-30. Driving to Houston in the morning to pick it up.
I should make it home in time to pick up my new Springfield Emissary.

Wow- Congrats, Man! So are we lucky enough to know before she knows?
Correct Bill only the forum knows, not even my parents know.
That is awesome.
No pics? Is DoubleDuty a slacker?
Everybody's assuming you're going to get a "Yes!" answer. That's premature.
So I'll say "If she says yes, then congratulations."
PS - Yeah, I know. It's projection. Just because I've had bad luck doesn't mean you will. Seriously, congrats and good luck.

If she says no I'm kicking her out lol
Hope it ends with a yes
Gotta ask, Ben…Was this experience at a basketball game on the Jumbotron by chance? Please say yes.Everybody's assuming you're going to get a "Yes!" answer. That's premature.

Auction guns coming my way: Marlin Papoose (Ducks Unlimited version)...,
...and a Ruger Mark II Target Model with 6 7/8" bull barrel with 4 magazines*:
Paid too much for each but it has come to the point, I don't care any longer. Gotta spend it before I croak or spend at least most of it.

I apologize for the lint all over this pistol, I literally just got home with it and wiped the excess oil off with a towel. Won't be able to shoot it until the weekend however, I'll say this.....this is the nicest 1911 pistol I've handled in years. I'm not easily impressed, I kid you not though, this looks and feels like a custom pistol right out of the box. The trigger pull feels like a custom job, light trigger pull almost no take up and breaks clean. The only thing I could be critical about is that the trigger is polymer, I think that's part of the reason it operates so good though. All the reviews I've seen on this gun appear to be correct, the final test will be in the shooting.
Look at the fit and finish, I have nothing to complain about. Lets talk about grip, I don't care if your hands are covered in WD-40 you will not lose grip of this pistol. I'm shocked by the grip to be honest, I thought the grenade pattern wouldn't be that great, I was wrong!
Again, sorry for all the lint on the pistol, my photos don't do it justice. Front sight is tritium with Hellcat style u-dot rear sight, I'm a fan!
Crown of barrel is slightly concave to protect rifling.
Even with the squared trigger guard it dropped right into my new commander holster.

The online stock photos did it no justice. BravoI apologize for the lint all over this pistol, I literally just got home with it and wiped the excess oil off with a towel.
