Tacticool Levergun Pic Thread

[DVX]

Back on topic.
Received my RPP order today. Along with some other goodies and some parts I had in the parts bin.
Pretty happy with the RPP stock. I like the adjustability of it. But over all I think the MI is probably better value. With the MI you get an adjustable cheek riser and you have mlok slots and the QD socket already available. With the RPP you have to order the QD/Mlok panel seperate, same with the cheek riser. The MI is $269usd and the RPP is $265 usd plus $20 for the riser and $20 for the mlok/QD plate.

The RPP is incredibly well made and very nice.

I like this look.

I like this look.

Thanks. This one has quickly become my favorite lever gun. The asthetics of it are quite pleasing. I am really impressed with the 1854. It feels like that classic S&W quality and has an excellent fit and finish.

The two Henry X models I have in 357 and 44 are also tac drivers…love them. Thinking of getting a rifle caliber as well now.

Not tacticool but it does have a light mount.......

I have the RPP long forend on my R95. I like it, it's much better than the OEM wood. Fills the hand better and lots of room to hang accessories off.



I actually tend to agree. I find the modern stocks to be really fugly. I left the OEM stock on my R95 and just added a saddle type cheek riser. I also dumped the soft, grippy rubber butt pad and went to a thin, slippery plastic butt pad. I found the OEM butt pad to be too long and it tended to grab my clothing as I was shouldering the thing.


Thats a lot of optic for a 38/357. I find that a low profile, more open red dot type sight works really well for these small, handy rifles. Something like a C-More railway would be perfect.

What model is that? The Smith?

the new cope rifle for canadian tactical nerds! Took it to the range for the first time today and shoots nice. Think im taking the red dot off and just using peep sights

Put a 1-8 Trijicon onto my 1895 Dark and seems to be a good fit

Any details on the Chiappa "T model"?
I have the Norinco 1887 T2, which I posted a pick of in this thread but honestly, it's probably one of norinco's worst built guns. I would love a decent 1887 in the T2 format. Just needs a large loop.

Those dark rifles are slick

Pirate604 - took the plunge and just bought a Smith & Wesson 1854. I have done nothing to it YET. Thanks for starting the thread some excellent ideas.

yes it is a limited edition of 1000 that retails for about $1550. I was surprised by its weight (8lbs) and you would really have to be the Terminator to shoot it one handed and do the "flip" reload.

Not that T model shown but I have the same gun with the walnut and polished blued/case hardened finish, very fun and quite well made and yeah pretty hefty. No large loop to spin cocking though :-(

 

[pirate604]

I have done the spin or flip ####/reload with mine and it is an absolute bear to do. Mine sits at just under 9lbs I think, and when I first got it I had to practice out in the yard as I feared it would get away from me and go through the drywall. Arnie made it look effort less.

My r92 I can spin all day long but the shells keep falling out.

The 1854 has impressed me quite a bit. I Will eventually get either a MI handguard or a RPP as I am not to fond of the magpul. It's a little bulky it terms of shape and size and it just doesn't quite have the cool look to it.

Rossi R92 mossy green in .357/.38 with Midwest Industries handguard and Magpul grip panels/handstop. Topped with a Bushnell Advance micro reflex.

 

[Caustic101]

My Trapper I put together, found one at a small shop out east this past fall, then threw a bunch of RPP at it.

 

[FlyingCanuck]

I was thinking a tacticool 3030 would be my next build... that or the crypto receiver depend on availability/ reviews from it. I feel like AR parts should do ok in that platform
