Hello. I've been a member for a bit, but never posted a new thread before. I mostly collect customized Ruger single actions in 45 Colt. My goal has been to send base guns to my favorite smith's to do a nice example of their work. I've sold off most of the examples I had that I had not actually commissioned myself. There is something really cool about talking to a gunsmith about my interests and having them do the work.
I love Marlin 39s and always looking to add variations I don't have. I love Marlin lever guns in general.
Here is a recent custom by Andy Horvath. He put a s&w ribbed barrel on it.

Welcome from Arizona, and that is a really nice looking .45 Ruger, is the Smith &Wesson a model 25 in .45 colt ?

Yes. S&W 25-5. I like my s&ws stock but my rugers tricked out. Don't know why.

Cool. I work at TJC. I'm a member at 31 west range and spend too much time at Macs Gun shop downtown.

I'm a member at Buffalo Creek range. Every time I called 31 they weren't taking new members. I know Macs well. They worked on my SP101 for me.

Welcome.
I'll buy the Stanleys BBQ and a cold True Vine next time I'm that way.

I buy gunpowder out at Buffalo creek. Most of the guns I like are older. Macs is the only local shop that knows the old guns. It's like a museum. They've been open since 1947.
