Hoss Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Got my 44-40 lightning today. Ran 30 rounds thru it that I already had made up for my 1860 Henry. Length was just right, no jams! I'm looking forward to shooting it more, probably primarily as a WB rifle. Does anybody have a copy of the AWA paperwork that comes with them new....parts diagram, exploded view, cleaning tips, operating manual etc? If so, I sure would appreciate a copy. Thanks!

H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 No paperwork, but I do have one in .45 Colt. I'll be using it as my main match rifle at EoT. A great gun. Good luck and have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlicLee SASS #16638 Life Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Good luck, its a great rifle. Mine is a white lightning in 38/40. AWA about 10 years old now, one screw on ejectors cracked. Has been my main match rifle since new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
