Awesome guns Cap.
Is your New England Westinghouse slightly ground on the receiver?
Mine definately is and I was told that is pretty rare.

It seems to be very light on the top of the reciever. Why is that Aaron?

I have no idea.
It almost looks as if it is either just slightly worn, or slightly ground, either way.

Yup sure do Ed but you got your answer in the Jap Rifle sub forum. Since its a bubba rifle take it out and shoot it.

Here is a Taurus M94 9 shot .22 revolver.
As far as .22 revolvers go this one shoots very accurate is low cost and fun to target shoot. I recomend one for every one.




Needs a little cleaning.

Thats darned nice of you Frenchy. I get a lot of satification from my firearms. I have taken apart and put back together most of them. Mostly without knowing how. I still have a goal of getting one of every major one used in WWII.

Holy Jesus Christ...
I am truly in pure awe. I can only hope that one day my collection looks like this... Unfortunately I was born a decade or three too late to really start collecting. I truly don't even know what to say.
Wait, I know what to say... I'm still a minor, you can adopt me!
