I was merely trying to inject some humour.
I thought you had some.

Seriously bud, I was trying to help you out before.
In my time here, I have found it best not to take anything too seriously, or personally. People pick on the strangest things, and get all upset over nothing.

Life is too short my friend.
Keep rolling with it Carverk.

And good luck on the Ecuador project.

( I just used my spell check, and had to correct two words, can you guess which ones?)
:)
 
By the way, I looked at this thread to see what options were actually available for the Mare's Leg full stock.
I am getting a Henry, and had thought about doing just that.
I might try out Foxer's sling idea, and see if that works well enough.
Sounds like it might. The whole idea is to keep it short.

You can get a holster made up through Wanstalls. They have an ad top center above. Very reasonably priced too!
It would be cool to be able to have it handy walking through the woods, if need be.

Well - you can take my henry 22 up to the range and see what you think of it. The saddle ring on the 22 is kind of cheezy, not solid like the rossi or chiappa but i suspect the ring on the centerfire version is a little more substantial.
 
Having said that - the henry is longer than the rossi or the chaippa, and if there was one of my mare's legs i'd consider putting a proper stock on, it would be that one. It feels more like a small rifle than the other ones.
 
I should be getting the Henry any day now. Thanks Foxer.
I think it's only a couple inches longer.

Yeah, only an inch longer than my rossi and 2 inches longer than the chiappa.

The thing is - when i hold the other two and imagine a full stock for them, i can tell the balance just wouldn't be quite right. It would still be a mares leg with a stock. The weight and length of the henry is different, and I can tell a stock on that would make it feel like a short rifle, instead of a mare's leg with a stock :) I think i'd enjoy shooting the stocked henry more than the rossi or chiappa.

But i'd still try the sling thing and see what you think - i haven't tried it on a henry yet.
 
We could meet up some day, and compare. Have you held the Henry yet?
I think they are beautiful looking rifles with that brass reciever, and bits.
Nice contrast to the blued steel.

Not the centerfire. I have the 22 but it's a different beast.

They're not my cup of tea as much because i generally don't like the front tube feed, but i have to agree they're gorgeous, and lots of people DO like the front feed.

(BTW - i discovered that if you take a slurpee straw and cut it to length and bend the ends properly you can get a 'quick feed' system for the 22 that works perfectly. the 22 shells fit in there just right and in one motion you've got the tube filled. - i bet you could find some pvc pipe or the like that was the right diameter and file the end to make a small 'funnel' shape and use tape to achieve the same effect. Then it would be even faster to load than the rossi and you could keep 4 or 5 of them on your belt. )
 
Interesting, perhaps some brass, or stainless tubing would work.
Just like how they load those machine pellet guns at the fair.
Great idea. If you had enough on your belt, it would look like a grass skirt!

Yeah, same concept. It would not be hard to rig up a little something at the end to make sure you had a 'positive' connection so the shells were easy to slide in without accidentally slipping off the tube and then dropping them. I found that if you tilted the gun at an angle and used your thumb as a guide and sort of 'tipped up' the 'cartridge holding' tube to meet the magazine, it was a very positive connection and it worked well. Better than trying to put it in vertically.

Yeah. A skirt or a really weird kilt. If you use steel tubes, perhaps a deranged scottish killer robot from the future. "Ah am the Hagginator Tew-thousan' laddie! Hand ohver John Conner and a scotch, ye wee timros cowrin' beastie!"

Either way - just one more reason for an attacker to decide to leave you the hell alone :D

I figure they'd likely fit nicely in a belt 20 guage shotgun shell holder or the like depending on diameter of the tube. Maybe even one meant for 45's. You'd likely find something pretty fast, and 6 tubes would give you a hell of a lot of fightin' horsepower.

Wow...just....wow. D00d, sure, you have some big issues with written english, but I think you have much bigger problems then that. Did you even read, or just misinterpret?? A defensive posture for no valid reason...get some professional help champ, or at least an assessment. Something tells me you might be the type of person that the majority of us firearms owners would NOT want on our side. Good luck, hope you decided to relax and carve something cool, people are not out to get you brother.

Lots of guys can't spell. Many are very intelligent but have weaknesses in that area.

As one of those guys (who had the good fortune to have good specialists tutors when i was young) I can tell you getting bugged about it can get old real fast. And i only had to put up with it for a few years when i was young, some have to put up with it for a lifetime. Probably stopped being funny for him when trudeau was still in power.

Maybe just let it go.

OK, I was going to let it go, disgruntled old man or whatever, but you know what, fawk that. I want you to tell me why you felt the need to post defensively in the case above?? I draw your attention to DOOK's post:

how could one tell if you were spelling things wrong while you talked?

To which you responded:

WHY!?! What the hell was it that he said there that got you so freaking flustered to throw insults as you did??

Spelling aside, you are a child. If anybody should grow up, look in the mirror. Now I'm done here, I really don't care about you nor have the time or desire to offer you spelling lessons, let alone life lessons. But you MIGHT want to consider caring about yourself enough to realize that it is YOU that is over reacting to something so trivial. DOOK said nothing negative to you in that post, but YOU insulted him as if he had. Perhaps your reading and comprehension skills are on par with your spelling.

Go ahead, get the last word in child. I'm done here.

"this mite be more about cowboy's and indian's"
If it is, that would because you just made it, not any of us.
We have tried to make you realize we are on your side, and placate you.
Telling you not to take it personally, giving you advice on how to make your posts more readable, just like the rest of us.
You have taken just about everything in the worst possible way.

You took the time, and energy to re-word your insulting tirade to me after my ( what I considered a light hearted joke) 4 or 5 times until you felt better, and now you want to bring race up in a negative way.
Just like a life long victim.
Let's not perpetuate negative stereotypes.
I think most here do a pretty good job of doing just that here.
It is simply not tollerated.
That works both ways Carverk.
I would prefer we were friends with a common hobby.
I to am a sculpter.
Lighten up, you might like it here.
And get a spelchecker dammitt!
