A rifle like Rooster Cogburn's
Been looking at those Cimarron Rooster Cogburn rifles with the large hand loop as the Duke used in his movies. I like the .45 LC caliber....just might be my next rifle buy.
Be nice with a slight modification to the handloops trigger guard to mirror " The Rifleman's." I had a toy Winchester that mirrored "The Rifleman's, it had the dingus on the trigger guard that made it a rapid firing cap gun....for playing the Cowboys and Indians we boys used to play almost every day in the Summer. Ahhhh...the good old days when commys were hated. No one burned our flag. No men kissing each other on TV...No nlggers in every TV commercial. No fat women modeling "sexy clothing," no commercials for faggot AIDS pills....no one suffering the heartbreak of plaque psoriasis...at least on the tube....which played the national anthem.... before signing off around midnight. Our milk was delivered in glass 1/2 gallon jugs. Etc.....

Weekends were for playing Army with our dads bring home real deal WWII weapons. Whoever got control of Mr. Wilsons Jap machinegun usually won the battle that day. Took 3 of us to carry the dang thing. ADD: .45 Colt I super like them but. If your not set up to re-load with brass primers etc. holy sheet you have to trade your truck for a box of cartridiges. $$$ https://gun-deals.com/list/ammo/.45+Long+Colt https://www.laxammo.com/handgun/45-long-colt-ammo Almost always out of damn stock..

Some ...put their $$$$$ up their nose with cocaine....some gamble their wages away...some pour liquor down their hatch instead of making their house payments... I spend my spare cash on popguns. I like buying toys for myself. AND I pay my bills first.
Shit...who's not with me on this ? Of course I don't have a whiney, needful, hi maintenance kunt pissing and moaning about why I don't turn my $$$ over to her....so she can buy dozens of pairs of shoes....etc. I once was supporting a vagina, her two deadbeat kids their spouse's and children...seven bloodsucking leeches. I ended that 20 years ago. My standard of living increased immediately. Never again. The Gunny has her own income stream and she also buys toys for herself. Must be that white privilege......an shit. |

Santa would leave it in a corner...leaning against the wall....beside my 3' tall, pre-decorated tree....that unplugs...and goes into a plastic bag for shelf storage the rest of the time.
Rifles are just to big to fit in my stocking. |

My oldest friend gave me a hand, here, with an unrelated home improvement project. While here and after we two geezerz carried in a new slab door for the dinning room, we looked at popguns, drank Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee. I told him. I had ordered In a Cogburn big loop, 1892 lever gun. THAT IS a rifle he has been drooling over since we were kids. We both had the toy 1892 "Rifleman" cap guns. With a fresh roll of caps properly installed........they worked, quite well, at least for we two kids. Just like Chuck Conner's rifle in his TV show. We two RULED the top of kids cowboy hill...back in da hood.
He looked at the 1894 XTR, the 1866 yellow boy, the 1873 sporting rifle in 357...and asked when the 1892 was arriving? Also he looked at the cowboy handguns and asked me where my new cowboy hat was? We are both geezers now. How da fuck did that happen? . |

The Rooster Cogburn, 1892 model Winchester, arrived today.....I am looking it over and fondling it now.
Really nice. The walnut is a bit..."fancy." The color casing is exquisitely done. I have never had a saddle ring Winchester before and this is a first. The faithful re-creation of the 1892 model was done by Chiappa, in Italy. WOW! ....They nailed it. It's in .45 LC. Our forefathers sure did have some NICE guns. I expect it will be next year, after it warms up before I bang it. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] |
