A "Marlin" Mares Leg by Chiappa
Doc Moses replied to H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Well...I do some youth classes and bought the Chiappa 22 rifle . The same as the the mare's leg only the full stock. I had a Marlin 39 for 20+ yrs. The Marlin and Chiappa look just alike and even have that same little 'clunk' in the action. I did not have the Marlin to do a side by side but as I remember the internals of the Marlin are different. The similarities seem to be mostly cosmetic. The Chiappa I got shoots well, was priced right, and has nice wood. It is a take-down like the Marlin too. The bad? It does NOT work for CAS 22. I had students shooting a Henry, 2 Rossi's and the Chiappa. The Chiappa would not consistently run fast. We ended up just having it as a back up. This was with 19 under 18 shooters so some of if it was undoubtably shooter error, but that was my experience. Nice gun. Good backpacker but shoot it slow and smooth. I will probably sell the Chiappa and get another Henry. the Henry and Rossi ran perfect and Henry has a GREAT warrantee. Ymmv -
Well...a couple of years ago I couldn't find a sbh but had a couple of stock hammers. I took one and cut off the the big rise part of one of the hammers. Then cut some groves into top of the remainder, smoothed it up. It looked good and was right at the same height as a sbh. It was on a 'for-fun' 45 and I shoot 44s. Fun to shoot and worked great. However...SASS rules do not allow modifications that are externally visible unless they are specifically approved. I enjoyed using it but didn't try to use it at a match. Local probably would have been fine but I don't think it would have been okay at a big match. Looked like a stock hammer just shorter. If it was allowed any cowboy could do it.

Over the years I have aquired 43 SPP pieces of 44 mag brass. I have decided I need some more for when LPP disappear again. If you have some to part with let me know. I need at least another 20 to have enough to cover my pistols. Starline doesn't list them any more or I would just buy from them. Small amount or large amount let me know!

I would NOT work it on the gun. Takes longer but sand some put them on, take them off and sand some more until it is right. Takes a while. There is a reason that skilled guys get paid so much to do stuff like this. It will seem like it takes forever but when you are done it will be right and not have taken as long as you thought. Worth the time. .

It is out of a 5.5" Super Blackhawk. I used it in a 4.6 inch SuperBlackhawk and a 4.6 inch Vaquero 44-40. Dropped in both. It is too long for a NMV or Blackhawk. New pic added

Sounds great! I PM'd my address. -
Blued, fluted, Ruger super Blackhawk/old Vaquero 44 mag cylinder. This is what got me into this game. Dropped it into a short barreled Super Black Hawk. Then got a Vaquero 44-40 and dropped it into it to make a convertable. I shoot stainless now so... Bought used off of ebay. There were some scatches and finish damage on one side that I cold blued. In the pics it is the less shiny side. Used it for 3 yrs in 2 different guns, no issues. $225 and I cover shipping in the lower 48. Make your 44-40 a convertable! I am in East Texas if you prefer a ftf and will knock some off the price.

I got the Texas grips to try and they are GREAT...but I am faster with plow handles. Like new, no scratches. Made from laminate for old Vaquero (XR3-Red?) these currently sell for $174 olus shipping. I will cover shipping for $105 in lower 48. SOLD. Pioneer Gun Works end cap for a '73. Never installed. I like the brass ones better. Pure vanity. New they are $18 plus shipping. From me, $12 shipped

Sold- Pair of SS Ruger SBH Hammers

I figured it would be dirtier. I use it in 38s and 44mag cases. I may just hang on to the 2 pounds I bought and get some more n320. Especially if I get my 44s dialed in just right for duelist with the n320
