guys i don't even like guns
but all of a sudden i actually want that winchester and at least two of those revolvers (the 14-4 and the 17-3)
edit: apparently, honestly expressing my appreciation for something i didn't hold in esteem before is worthy of a negarep. interesting.
Come to the dark side Coq
You really don't want the Winchester 1903. They stopped making ammunition for it years ago, every once in a while I can find a box but it cost me $20-$30 dollars. in 1936 the 1903 was changed to use more common 22lr and became the model 63.Quote:

They were made that way so you could practice with the cheap .22 and use the more expensive .38 in competitions. They also made a .32 caliber 6" K-frame which is very rare and a Grail for collectors.
i'm not going to lie, i really like these onesQuote:

Newhouse,I love that 52C. What scope is on her? Is that a Lyman or Unertle or something else?
Here is one that will really upset the purists. It's a 1903-A3 made by Remington in 1943. From the style if stock best guess is it was sporterized some time in the late 50s to late 60s when the 1903s were $20 mail order surplus rifles. A nice Remington 1903-A3 in original condition could fetch upwards of $800 today. This mangled old girl was lonely sitting ignored on a table yesterday with a $400 price tag and really needed a good home, after a few minutes of haggling she now wil get the love she so badly deserves.

A couple of weeks ago a kid at one of my high schools told me about a rifle her boyfriend had found hidden inside a wall. He also found a pair of hobnailed boots and a 48 star flag. I figured it was a WWII bring-home and managed to tell her it was an Enfield based on her description. I met her an hour later to check out the rifle and found that it was a No.1 Mk III that had been sporterized very similar to Smith's Springfield, albeit sans scope. She mentioned her boyfriend might sell it, I may end up talking to her about it this week.
You teaching high school now, fm?
@Nick: is the third rifle from the bottom a Saiga?
@Syme: now THAT would be a SWEET teacher to have.

I meant to ask what you mean by "one of my high schools". Does this mentoring gig focus on high school students?Quote:
