I wood just like to get a small carbine not a fight
Then if it is not available from the distributor, just buy a Mare's Leg and install a replacement stock. A stock - which requires a bit of fitting - can be purchased from Boyds. The result is a very short, handy carbine. A friend went this route, and it is an easy, practical modification.
Butt stocks aren't hard to make. Why not carve one up.
Make it your own. Some traditional designs on the sides.
Post what you come up with.
Others have done a lot of great customizing to their legs.
i mite have to do that wen I get the time
I have bin thinking about it and ad sum engraving on the recever just never have time thes days
i think the case harding mite be to hard to engrave by hand but the henry or rossie wood be no problem to engrave
There are three spelling mistakes in my second last sentence if anyone cares to fling SH!!t at me.
Here's an idea. since the three different models all copy an antique style, why not pick up an antique crescent butt plate and carve a stock to fit with a crescent antique butt plate. Polish it up to match the finish of the gun. Crapity, now I have to get one in .44 Mag. Thanks a lot CARVERK !!
One more idea. There is nothing that pisses off those ass-hats in this post more than completely ignoring them. This takes away their little moment of fame and reduces them to the babbling morons that they truly are. Try it and see. Good on the ones who appologized for the missunderstanding in humour. Takes an honorable person to do that. There are three spelling mistakes in my second last sentence if anyone cares to fling SH!!t at me.
Why not just buy a Marlin 1894c then.
Just curious, if I'm not doing cowboy action shooting, wouldn't the .44 magnum be a much more powerful round? On paper it is and I wouldn't imagine you can load any of these Mare's Lags with hot .45LC. Waddaya think?
Foxer, which of the three would you recommend as the best for quality materials and workmanship. I don't live close enough to go to multiple stores to check them out. Methinks you is one of the smart guys when it comes to these little beasts.
Just got my Henry today.
Very nice!
I can see the reciever getting scratched easily though. Right now it is perfect!
