Finest battle rifle ever made. I humped the semi auto version for 11 1/2 years and the full auto one for 1 1/2 years halfway around the world and back.. Only thing wrong with it is that stupid 30 rd mag. Fully functional with the 20 rd'r, piece of garbage with the 30.

Barnwell Blaster is my brother in law. Was sick with the flu over the holidays and took a fall carrying a box down stairs. I had left knee problems in the past but this really put me down. I should be able to shoot again by the end of May. -

Prayers up Blackwater, I'm starting to also have mobility issues with my right knee. My wife thinks it is complications of my diabetes. There are questions about me shooting this season without falling and creating a safety hazard right now. -

It is a tad ugly, I'll stick with my Uberti as this rifle is obviously not marketed for the competition crowd.

Last USA Made Winchester 94 Trapper
Dapper Dynamite Dick replied to Rooster Ron Wayne's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Lever Action Horrors! Virtually everyone has a horror story about 1 or more firearms that they have owned. Here's my lever horror story; In '94 I was looking for a lever in .357 because I was doing alot of .357 shooting out of my M66 and wanted a cheap and easy round that I could reload in abundance. After looking around for about 6-8 months I couldn't find one, I even phoned Winchester! The nice lady said that they didn't have enough calls to start manufacturing them again. Remember this was before Cowboy Action got bigger. I finally gave up on .357 and found a 1994 mfg Winchester Wrangler in .44 Magnum. Shades of John Wayne that large loop lever was kewl! Little did I realize that with 2 years, I'd start shooting Cowboy Action. I did lots of testing and came up 7.2 grains of Unique pushing a 240 grain LSWC bullet as an accurate target load. Within the first 20 rds down range, the pot metal feed ramp broke. Off for warranty work! Eight months later I get the rifle back. After every 50 rds the rear sight elevator would fall off. So we have to install a Williams rear sight! Shooting again after every 50 rds the screws in the receiver would work loose. Locktite!! After 1,500 rds the tubular magazine spring gave up the ghost! Wolfe Gun springs to the rescue. After this the Lever Link broke, 3 months and 5 nasty letters later, Winchester told me they would sell me the part but without warranty! They wanted me to send the gun to the warranty centre again! That was the last straw, I found a sucker to buy the Winchester and bought a Marlin M1894S, after 8,000 rds through it, it broke a firing pin. I love the quality Marlin builds in. P.S. My Wrangler was one of 4 Wranglers in town with the same problems.
