My Winchester addiction got the better of me today

Its not perfect, its probably not worth piles of money because its been refinished, but it was love at first sight. What are you supposed to do when you love these things and people just bring them in off the street to sell them?

Winchester model 97 12 gauge, vintage 1917-1918. Its even got a full choke, can not WAIT to see how it does in the next tactical shotgun course!!!

Sweet. 30-30?

Yeah .30-30, such a great rifle! I was shooting a steel plate at 175 yards with it.

I think I need a model 92 next, maybe in .44-40. Please no one bring one in, totally got busted today about the new shotgun. I got ratted out by someone who doesn't follow opsec. A 92 will get me divorced.

So much want!!

I am looking for an older (pre-Remington) Marlin 336 in 30-30 to complete the collection passed down by my dad. Looks just like the '94

Let me know if you get one in. Not in a hurry.

I sold a really nice brand new stainless steel one to a guy and before he even got to shoot it his house was burglarized. Didn't even have it a week. I'll keep an eye out though. Lever guns don't last long on the used rack.
