Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 My early Christmas wish list is... A clone lightning pump rifle in .38 wcf. A clone model 1892 in .44 wcf, and also in .38 wcf. Looks like the only caliber they presently come in, is .45 Colt. An Uberti or Pedersoli model 1886 rifle, in .45-70 Government, with a straight stock. I think the only one Uberti or Pedersoli offers now is with the pistol grip stock. Yes, I know, Chiappa makes one, with a straight stock, I had one (but sold it) but Uberti, and Pedersoli are higher quality. Sorry...no brag, just fact. Short wish list, this year. That is directly related to the slow recovery, from the china virus, by our Italian friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I'm looking at a Savage 99 9n 30 Savage that I'm going to ask Santa for. It is in really good shape and a decent caliber and come with a leather saddle scabbard and 300 rounds of factory ammo.....and I've never owned one. Hell, I've never ever fired one, but my bucket list is getting closer to empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Devil Dale Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Don't ASK Santa. Just buy the stuff and put it under the tree with a label showing your name " from Santa". (and hope your wife has a sense of humor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you're just being cruel. I'll keep on looking now that I know there are still some out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabela’s used to have a deal where they would ship guns between Gun Libraries. I bought a couple of guns that way. Maybe BPS learned something from Cabela’s in that regard.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Well....I'm not crazy about a .303, and I could have it shipped to David Fink. He'd the gunsmith at Gunsight Academy in Paulden and has been my 'smith since we moved herea dn five years before he moved yo Paulden. The last time I got a gun (a new Uberti "Outlaw" via Cimarron) .45 sent to me through him he called to tell me it was here and I had it in my hands in 50 minutes. Took it back a week later had had him remove the CCH from it except for the loading gate and hammer. Now it looks like the several hundred originals that I've seen over the years. I'll see if he has a 99 on his list before I go much further, but thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Well, that got put on hold. Like I mentioned in another post I like Ithaca 37 shotguns. Been without one for some time but always have an eye out.Walked into a local gun shop today with a friend who was looking for .22 mag ammo (found two boxes) and there was a beautiful 37 from about 1965 judging form the serial number. I'll have to check that out for sure. I didn't have enough cash on me but they have a layaway program...something I haven'y seen in years...and I'll go back and pick it up on the third Thursday this month when my check comes in. Thank you Santa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
