I am 63 now, and have not shot a rifle much in the past 30 years. But, I have been gearing up for an Elk hunt here in New Mexico for some time now (getting divorced freed me up so much!). I have a 7mm Rem. with a scope, but I recently acquired an 1886 Winchester Deluxe in 33 WCF. Just a...

A buddy and I both won the draw for licenses to hunt a Bull Elk this season. I can hardly wait! The area where we will be hunting is near Cuba, New Mexico... woodland interspersed with occasional meadows. I recently bought an 1886 Model Winchester in 33 WCF... a 1906 made takedown deluxe, and...

I recently saw a truck in Los Lunas (NM) that had the back emblazoned wiith anti Jane Fonda graffiti. Is this still hanging on? Personally, I am a fan of hers. She made a stupid act in her teens that she immediately regretted... which one of us has not done that? Your thoughts...

I am always interested in history and have read several recent works on Pancho Villa. I am curious what modern thinkers feel about him... what are your thoughts?

I have a true gem of a rifle... an 1886 Winchester Deluxe. I am feeling it is time to sell it, but for a rifle of this quality, I am unsure how to proceed. The rifle is what I would conservatively rate as 90%, probably closer to 95. Caliber is 45-70, octagonal barrel with 98% original blue, bore...

I am looking at a Winchester 94, manufactured in 1939, but can't find any data on it in the Blue Book. What am I missing? The listings go to the "early 30's", then end till 1940. Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks, Lee Davis

I have finally acquired the three pistols that I wanted. And this is after two divorces that forced me to sell everything I ever had before. (but, I am not a whiner, and I am sure that many of you understand). The 1911 is a commercial 1914 Colt. in 98%. The 1903 .32 is 95%+ (from 1924), and the...
