      Ah, I need to update my profile name then as my sass name is Jack-Knife and I wasn't at Bordertown unfortunately.  I was able to pickup a local Win. '97 pump though and now I'm on the search for a used gun cart else I'll make my own.  Hope you're doing well!

      Good evening , so , the 97' you bought . Is the barrel cut down , is it tuned and smooth to operate ? Buy a used running /joggers 3 wheel cart , use your imagine , a couple cross bars , cut out a couple of 1x6's for the butt stocks , storage box for your ammo and things . Or a hand truck , Splitthumb

      Hi!  Sorry I've been off the net for awhile.  Yes, its cut to 21 inches and pretty smooth...serial number places it around 1912...I love it.  I made my own cart out of donated cedar...works pretty well.  Hope you're doing well.

    I'm looking for information or parts on modified carrier or bolt parts for 94' Marlin CBs, thank you , Splitthumb

    I have bought a half a dozen 97's from Lock Stock & Barrels , out of Simi Valley , I buy them  off of gunbroker . You should buy from a California FFL , it is a real problem to sell a gun to you with all the paper work . Have you tried to buy a 97' from any of the shooteres at your club or shoots ? I would not have a problem face to face , because I have sold to shooters in Ca. at different shoots when I've traveled through in the spring heading back to ID. . Splitthumb

      I have not.  I went to a match last weekend, but folks in that group weren't as sociable.  The group I'll be joining meets in a couple of weeks and I'll inquire with them then...just wanted to be able to shoot a match ready to go.  If you change your mind my gun guy in the Bay Area accepts shipments, but yes ideally it'd be great to try out first. Thanks!

      Howdy.  Picked up my 1873, have a new vaquero in jail and another on the way in 3 weeks.  Would love to see some picks of the 1897 once you're done....would consider adding it to my final vaquero order so that I have just 1 DROS.  I'm Jack Knife Jakob now.  Cheers,

    Soo , what all is supposed to be done to it , when you say it has wider mods done to it . It does not look like it has been short stroked .

      I did , but removed it because I got my load down to insert number 26 & 1 1/8 oz. of shot all of shotgun shells for SASS shooting . This one is an extra one I had , I sold the other one to a friend who shoots trap also . You work up a load , write it down for , then work up another load for some other type of shooting . Then redial the universal block back to your other type of shooting. I use clays  (26)insertor 700 -x, (23)insert , because 700-x is a little hotter

      must have CRS- sorry-not trying to short you- how embarrassing!- thank you- Mark
