SBR it with a 10” 300BO, a can, and a 20rnd mag (I just don’t like the look of a 30rnd p-mag) and it would be a pretty sweet rifle. I do wish they did not use the term “AR” I worry it will make the “antis” start looking negatively at lever guns. Maybe call it a “modular magazine fed lever action”

Speaking of lever guns, have any of you seen this: https://www.offgridweb.com/gear/new-bond-arms-lever-action-ar-15/amp/ It will be a Lever action lower for AR uppers. Kind of f-ugly, but a suppressed, 300BO lever would be kind of cool.

Hi, I'm Briggs, and I'm a leveraholic. It's been 19 days since I bought a lever gun..... So, the Sears Model 45 (Sears branded Marlin 336RC) in 35 Remington arrived and she is sweet. The bluing is in really good condition for a 59 year old girl. The furniture is in great shape except for the finish. I removed the wood and stripped the old finish off using denatured alcohol, acetone and hexane. I used my Winchester Stock oil (slightly tinted linseed oil mixed with mineral spirits) to do a hand rubbed oil finish on the wood. These photos are after the first application. Several applications, with curing between, were ultimately used. Here is how she looks now with a vintage Weaver K6 scope. I can't wait to get her out and put some lead down range.

I use Music City Pawn. Not really SW Nashville but they are good folks. Used to be $25 but it recently bumped up to $40, plus the $10 background.

Good to know

Thanks

Another source to get a feel for current values is GunBroker.You will have to search the completed sales, then it’s best to sort those by number of bids (most to least). This will give you a feel for the interest in the sale. Just remember that sometimes folks go a little stupid on GB and get in a bidding war. I usually look at multiple sales and then try to come up with an average value based on guns of the same condition. I also then price depending upon how quickly I want to move the fire arm.

Here is the older ammo. I think it is 50s-60s.

And might offer to buy them.

I was asking because I have some older 32WS and older 35 Rem. I just was wondering how old it had to be to be concerned about corrosive primers, etc.

Glad you are still with us and praying for a speedy recovery

Please expound on the corrosive primers and mercury leaching. How old does ammo need to be for this to be a concern?

I have bid through that sight. I have won one auction and been out bid on a bunch of lever guns. I am still following a few gun in upcoming auctions. When you place a bid it will tell you what the final price with the dealers premium. Just remember it will be an additional 15-20% on top of what you bid. Plus shipping.

almost 300 rounds of 25/20 at auction on March 28th. https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/289-rds-6-boxes-of-25-20-win-ammo-1649-c-c504f868d8?objectID=178201973&algIndex=upcoming_lots_prod&queryID=ff5de8df1e0d0f844984f8840b6dd691

Still looking. The new lever will be here next week and she will be hungry.

I know. That’s why I like this one. It’s good to know I can get one from that time period that was not associated with the Nazi Party

Welcome from Nashville. Thank you for your service to our Country.

I’m guessing this is gone?

Them there are some purty booger welds

I understand. Just some evil I don’t really want in my home.

Ditto and Ditto. I’ve always wanted a Luger but I won’t own something of Nazi origin.

Someone needs a new propeller
