This is one of those so I thought you should see it as well.

Interesting. So you've stripped off the Marshield coating and refinished finished the stock? And added a rail and changed out the front sight? Anything else?

Thank you
1. Action work
2. Cut the barrel crown
3. Go thru the gun inside
4. Tune the ejector

This is just some of the things.

That's great. I'm sure you're polishing the part of the extractor mechanism responsible for the dreaded Marlin jam. I've got an 1894SS in .44 magnum I love to shoot. These are great, fun guns.

As a fan of the Winchester 1894 I approve of this. Very cool rifle!

I thank all of you for your nice words.
Currently I am doing a Winchester 1886 45/70 that I am cutting down to 16.5 inch.
It is going to be a nice gun I think I will have to have one for myself in the end.

Please post pics of the winchester.

My buddy has a pre 64 m94 that is pretty beat up, and forsale. I've been thinking about getting it and refinishing the wood, cut it down to 16.5 and either duracoat or park.

I will post pics of the gun when it is ready.
Right now it is in hunks.
If you get the 94 I can bring it back to life and you will love it forever.

Beautiful!

I love the blueing. I only just this week discovered the wonders of gun blueing. All this time I thought the "man" finish was cerakote, or some other expensive shit. I got that stuff, and that shit works too. BUT, blueing is an art. It's ****ing nuts as you do it and the steel's chemical composition changes right in front of your eyes. It's old school magic. Alchemy. The primitives must have thought the process was from God. It's ****ing cool. Try blueing something. It's fun. :)

Tell us about that good looking S&W! Is it a Model 27?

Mr. Smith

The gun in those pics is one of my personal favorites it is a Model 28.
That has all the work done to it and stag grips it is 10mm just to make sure nobody can have one just like mine.
