Jim,Very Very nice. I still have my 1894 Carbine in 357 that I bought in 1979 for $170.00
I'm curious as to which rifling they used Micro Groove or Ballard
Truth. The old saying holds you don't pay too much as much as you may pay too soon!Yes, if you have the funds and they are available I say buy them . Guns are in my opinion a good investment
I have used the "O" ring on all my Marlins while shooting SASS. They work great, but the plug looks better.I usually remove the cross bolt safety on my Marlins and install the plug that looks like a screw on the right side.
However, this time I am trying the rubber "O" ring trick which really does't look too bad. I found that a #36 "O" ring seems to be just right. In the future I may still install the plug which I prefer.
