My 91/30 roared this morning.
My 91/30 roared this morning.
I finally drew blood with a MN today, took a 100 pound 4 pointer at 30 yards. I just finished skinning him and will post pics after a well earned nap. Life is good!

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Re: My 91/30 roared this morning.
As promised, here is a pic of the deer. The 203 grain Silver bear soft point entered the left shoulder, passed into the ribcage, and liquefied the lungs. A piece of the jacket tore through the bottom of the heart, the lead punched thru the diaphragm and came to rest on the liver where I recovered it. Devastating wound... He went maybe 30 feet and collapsed in a pile. No tracking this one!
And yes, in my early days I was a no-good dirty Bubba. At least the bolt handle and cocking piece safety ring are the only permanent mods I made to the gun. Shortly after I was shown the error of my ways and sinned no more against mil-surps.
I will get some close-ups of the non-offensive scope mount posted in a few minutes.

Guns are not good, they are not evil. Save those descriptions for the people holding the firearm. -- Unknown

No, I built the one in the pics myself. I knew I had seen a pic of one somewhere but didn't realize it was being built for sale. Thanks for the info!

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yeah if made in large quantities. From what I've heard and read about the jmeck mounts, he makes them all in his garage.
