Just a suggestion, you might want to add a price and if shipping is included or separate. I looked a couple of times and didn’t see it but am without my readers.

It might hold 10 in the tube, if he uses .44 S&W ammo, like I do. I'd also shave some material off of the follower, if possible.
He hasn't called me back yet.
Agreed as I also shoot .44spcl, but you never know the over all length (OAL) needed until you try. But it could also be a chance that if you shorten the mag tube spring they would fit. However I was talking more about the.45 Colt models as they are next to .357 in popularity. Still loading on the clock isn’t bad if you really like the rifle!

To me, it looks like a cross between a Marlin and a Henry Big Boy.
I am surprised they don't offer a version with "conventional" sights.And 10 round magazines! Most of these new lever guns are coming in 9 round tube magazines. Perhaps a shorter magazine spring would get them the 10th round in the mag, but, again if the shooter really wants to shoot it and is ok loading one from the belt to get to 10, I say go for it!

I was hoping he had one from The Comancheros movie. I want to get a Rossi, octagon 24” barreled .44 mag 92 and plate the receiver, remove the forearm and plate the curved butt stock, thinking it should come pretty close. Always live John Wayne holding it up and then giving it to Jack Elam!

Another weird firearm in El Dorado was J.P. Harrah's rifle that never ejected a round (spent or loaded) every time he levered it during his altercation with Elmer the bartender, the wounded gunman behind the piano, Laughing Boy and Bart Jason.
I think he borrowed it from Chuck Connors, Johnny Crawford brought it with him!

I thought it was what I was saying but I need to look at the show again. My memory must be playing tricks on me. I could swear that he had an 1873 rifle long barrel like I said that 40 but 30 inches and he had a nice brass scope on the top of it and he was the sharpshooter the group I could be wrong anyway thanks gentlemen.

And the 1873 was a 40” barrel with a scope on it, yes o remember that too. I found them on YouTube, will have something to watch this weekend.
My bad, no I believe it was a 30” barrel as I remember the “tube” scope was very long as well, thanks for catching my typo.

Sorry, it was a '92. Vin Tanner (Eric Close) carries a Winchester Model 1892 "Mares Leg" Rifle as his weapon of choice in the series. (The Mare's Leg also was the weapon of choice for Steve McQueen in his TV Show Wanted: Dead or Alive, interesting since Eric Close plays the character Steve McQueen played in the original film.) Tanner's weapon has a large lever loop instead of the "D" lever.
I always wondered if Zoe's Mares Leg in Firefly was the same one.
I am sorry too, but I beg to differ, he may have also used as shown in the picture but at the beginning of the series he had an 1873, I remember seeing and wondering why they used an 1873 instead of the 1892. I will see if the series is on YouTube or some other channel. I am thinking it was the pilot that he used it when the fighting for the mixed race village among the cable channels.

Mag 7 TV show, Buck Wilmington (Dale Midkiff) uses a sawed-off double-barreled shotgun
And the character Vin used an 1873 Winchester Mare’s Leg with “I think” a regular loop lever, but my memory might be letting me down! LOVED that show wanted it to stay on but good ole CBS said no!

Knew someone would know, have a New Service, and I can’t tell the difference except for military markings and a landward “ring” on the butt.

Hollywood often substituted a double action revolver for the SAA when fast shots were needed.
Paul Newman's final volley in Hombre came from a Colt Police Positive. Dan Duryea as Waco Johnny Dean in Winchester 73 dies in the street firing his gun double action.
I'm sure there are many more.
Robert Mitchum shooting in the pew in El Dorado! Damn these HDTVs! I believe just from the size it was either a Colt New Service or 1917 in .45 Colt, but I could be wrong and I am sure someone will correct me if need be. I would assume that the shotgun went thru the proper paperwork after the issues they had with the original Mare’s Leg in Wanted Dead or Alive. I believe someone posted here that the ATF came roaring in with fine of 10,000 and possible prison time, shut down production for a while.

Gotta make room for a little shooter about to join the family so I'm selling a gun cabinet (don't worry they have a safe to live in, no guns were harmed in the making of this post!).
It was my grandfathers and is from Ethan Allen. Ten long guns plus some drawers/cabinets below the main section for pistols if so desired. Overall in great shape, but I need more room for the baby as he will be taking over the room this currently resides in. Also comes with 3 keys - all identical.
Asking for $150 OBO. Local pickup only as this thing is not worth the cost to ship unless you REALLY REALLY want it. I'm located on the Treasure Coast of Florida.
Are you talking east coast or west coast, I have heard both have one. I am done by Ft Lauderdale how far away are you?

Plans for a theatrical release of chapter 2 have been scrapped.
DELAYED, not scrapped. As said here “Chapter 1” needs more revenue, both in theaters and video on demand. I have been a member since early 2000s and all that time every has complained that there aren’t enough westerns made, well here’s one and instead of running to the theaters to see it, I keep hearing excuses! Go see the film!
