Well done.
Had to look closer at the photo to be sure that wasn't a can of Bud Light on the wheelbarrow

My Marlin 36 from 1947 and my Hawken...
Andy

Hmmmm……. I just picked up a 1947 vintage Mod. 37-A
It has been used, but that hand fitted action, is a thing of beauty.

I've had this stainless 336 for quite a while. I've always planned on installing an aperture sight. I previously bought two aperture sights. One didn't fit (even though I bought the right size and model), and the other one was so tall above the receiver, I need a taller front sight. .32" to .51" . Sounds easy enough, but I just cannot find the correct sight in stock, anywhere. I had given up.

Then just yesterday in the mail I received this Williams FP. It sits low enough on the receiver, the factory front sight will work.

Stop with this nonsense. I am about to pay the rest of mine off & my local shop has a can for it as well.. for an additional 900$!!!! Facccckkkk

You won't regret it, if you don't already reload you will need to buy that as well... Don't worry its cheap to get into

When I was growing up, Williams and Lyman were the only peep sight makers I ever knew of.

What about Redfield?

 

[DeanMk]

Winchester '73 is a great movie and somewhat groundbreaking as well.

For one, it was the first movie where an actor (Stewart) agreed to accept 50% of the box office profits as opposed to a flat fee for his role.

It also started the now common movie theme with that of the primary 'hero', a beautiful woman (but independent and strong female character), and the reliable 'sidekick' of the hero, who all participate in the 'action adventure' aspect of the movie.

Winchester '73 has also been regarded as the first 'modern' Western in that it had a more defined story than many previous westerns, with more realistic human emotions, family issues and a positive and 'happy' ending.

Herb Parsons (The Showman Shooter) also performed some of the trick shots in the movie.

Just remembered, I made a video showing my dad's 94, a few years ago. The guy I'm talking to here is the guy who owns the "Buckeye Ballistics" YT channel. I think it was about midnight when I made this video....

I run that same site on my Browning 71 in 348…top eject so only way my old eyes can pick up the front site in hunting hours - cloverleafs at 100 yds at the range. I want to take a moose with that rifle before I'm too old to do it anymore.
