Guns and Blowin Shit Up!

Well...I meant...It takes longer to load & shoot the lever and revolver guns, so ...would not shoot nearly as much ammo.
And my two lever guns are Henry 38/357 and Henry 22. (excluding the winchester commemorative model .30-30 that's never been fired.
Using 38spcl reloads...would have been cheap. And I have a bunch of it as it was the first rounds I started reloading....and NOW that I am officially a gun nut, I rarely shoot the revolvers or lever guns much.
So many social engagements....so little time.

You have pics of those lever guns? I think I've mentioned before I always wanted a lever action 30-30. Can't remember if it was a Winchester or a Henry I saw in the gun store, but it was fuckin' butter! My buddy growing up also had a Winchester. It was sweet as well.

Winchester Golden Spike commemorative model - 100th anniversary of completing the railroads. My friends dad bought it new in 1969. It's never been fired. I traded my buddy a scope for it. It's not really valuable, but it's purdy. It is the oldest and most "special" gun I have. Not that things made before 1969 are necessarily old. :raspberry:

I bought the Henry all weather stainless model in .357 magnum a few years ago (before I had the Winchester).
It's a good shooter, very pleasant to shoot and very smooth. Although I am peeved cuase it does not have a side gate (for loading), but the new ones made now do. For some reason Henry made the 30-30 with side gate loading, but not the 357. I wanted the .357 cause I already had a Ruger pistol in .357 and didn't have anything in 30-30, nor did I want to add another caliber (way back when)
