    So did our replies to it!! Who'd a thunk Archie and Veronica would be censored!

    I’m guessing the ‘toon itself was too racey for someone’s taste and a complaint was lodged. Which is perplexing given other content on this forum.

    Great reviews on the 1887.

     

    However, after the "Drop Two modification" is made, can the magazine still hold hold 5-6 shells?

     

    If not, it would seem that it would have to be set up for either the Cowboy shooting or for Wild Bunch shooting, to take full advantage of either state of the shotgun.

    As Deuce said, it depends on your level of commitment to practice. ‘87s have a steep learning curve. My Coyote Cap version allows stoking the tube, but requires a bit of finesse to load just two without pushing the carrier down too far. It can be done at competitive speeds, but the drop 2 only mod is more foolproof.

    Is that pink box Pepto-Bismol? For the nausea she feels after she chops him up?

    I’m thinking it’s for the nausea after eating the parts. Then the donuts will taste better for dessert.

    I definitely prefer the older version. New trucks look like they have some kind of elephantitis or something. 

    Betcha the older one has a bigger bed. And it didn’t need a folding staircase in the tailgate.

    Is it?  On my phone it looks galvanized.   I guess I owe Alpo an apology.

     

    Sorry, Alpo!

    Galvanized won’t bend like that. If you zoom in, you can just see the sweated joint under the M of Plumber.

    Pat,

    That looks like Cass, WV to me. Any luck I’m right?

    Pretty sure that’s European, most likely German. Note the number plate which is different from US locomotives. I have a Marklin train set that has an engine and cars just like it.
