I love the classics. Here's one:
Winchester M 94 SRC.jpg
This was owned by one of the early Nevada cowboys from days long gone now.
Built in the year 1900.
He was a rifleman, now long gone. Put a lot of meat on the table with this carbine.
This came to me from a descendant of the family about 20 years ago.
I don't understand how family members can let these heirlooms go, but here it is.
Winchester M 94, Saddle Ring Carbine. .30 WCF. If it could only speak.
Lives on my living room wall above a mule deer I took way back in my younger days.

This little 18” Mannlicher Schoenauer in the somewhat anemic 6.5x54 MS has worked its way into the fav category . I’ve killed four deer with it using four different 140 grain bullets .

I recently took custody of a custom build (maybe my last as the smith has retired). I came across a shortened Mauser action allegedly done by Pete Grissel. I had it stocked in a nice piece of American Black Walnut just to be different from all the English on other guns. With the scope (Leopold VariX3 2.5-8) it weighs just 7lbs. Caliber a classic of course 250 Savage.
