    I think it was a Stevens manufactured and marketed under J. C. Higgins.

    At about 16 years old my parents bought me a Sears .22 tube fed Ted Williams rifle which was a Winchester. A friend had the Winchester Model 190 and mine was the Sears M90.

    Both were destroyed in a house fire. 

    Brings back memories, Ted Williams endorsed everything from baseball gloves to barbecue pits for Sears.

    Looked up your 45-70. That’s a beautiful lever action. Please don’t anyone ever think that I am any kind of expert. I know what I know but am always open to correction and still have a lot of room to learn. I would say that Marlin could stop an elephant. Lol

    It literally could with the right hard cast bullets.  I shoot the 300 grain soft points at 1850 fps, plenty for hogs. 🙂

    We need to find where this money is coming from and get them on RICO charges!

    Good luck verifying that on MSNBC for the Breitbart haters, lol.

    Now that we’ve gotten past our first gun, I’ll ask you and everyone else what’s their favorite gun. It’s hard, I know, because we like them all, but there is still a favorite. Mine is my S&W 327 TRR8 Performance Center. I’ll pass it in to my son when I leave…..and the rest.

    Marlin 1895 45-70, limited use but is a great hog gun.

    Was it in the day of paper shells? Lol. My brother’s tube magazine was lost somehow but I was able to replace it many years later from an online store in Canada. I couldn’t believe it.

    We had a Mec reloader that would load paper shells.  Funny you mention the tube, I had to backtrack on several hunts because I would look and the tube had come out. It wouldn’t lock well in place.  Would put tape on it to hold it, lol.

    My Dad bought me my first gun. It’s a .410 single shot, bolt action Stevens. Bought at Sears & Roebuck on Broadway and Magnolia in Beaumont. My brother’s was the bolt action repeater.

    First gun was also a used Stevens .410 with a tube magazine. Still got it.

    We will see how it plays out for this popular president in 10 months.  If special elections are an indicator and the house has a thin lead as of today it’s going to get very interesting. 

    Keep those fingers crossed for disaster! 🤞

    You democrats keep grinding, you’re doing great!

    From the article:

    Republicans have officially surpassed Democrats in North Carolina voter registration for the first time in the state’s history, marking a dramatic political shift in one of the nation’s most closely watched battleground states and a development Republicans tell Fox News Digital shows the effectiveness of the Trump agenda.

    Over the weekend, North Carolina State Board of Elections data showed registered Republicans now slightly outnumber registered Democrats statewide. As of early January, the state reports approximately 2.315 million registered Republicans compared to 2.313 million registered Democrats, giving the GOP a narrow but historic edge.

    From the article:

    "A massive abuse of taxpayer dollars not only occurred under President Biden’s watch, but was effectively incentivized by his administration’s failure to implement strong financial controls resulting in billions worth of potential improper payments," HUD Secretary Scott Turner said in a statement provided to the Post.

    "HUD will continue investigating the shocking results and will take appropriate action to hold bad actors accountable," he said. "Additionally, the Department is advancing efforts made under President Trump’s first administration to strengthen program integrity and ensure taxpayer-funded assistance serves the vulnerable communities it was intended for."

    I didn't say that.

    Was replying to LRF about the personal attacks and violations in this forum and he suggesting the mods handle the business better.

    To be clear, you brought up the personal attacks and I said I couldn’t do anything about that, only moderators could, I wasn’t calling for more stringent control.

    For the most part, I have no problem with the job the moderators do here, it’s a fairly hands off approach, with only a few that I can recall that were removed, by their own doing.

    But my point was it didn't matter to those on the right where this subject came from. It was something that supported that side, came from a MAGA supporter so therefore all of you guys took it as truth. Not one of you (other than baddog) cared to verify the data. You had no motivation to verify the data because that supports what you support. Just said prove it wrong. 

    Even some said it didn't matter if Elmer Fudd posted the data. 

    I am betting that had a lefty posted, some of you would have provided many sources to either verify or dispute. You would not have taken their word.

    All I am saying, let's not be so blind. How about posting real sources and not leftwing or rightwing social media influencers.

    It’s funny that DCT made post after post after post that was simply AI generated with no sources and not a peep from you or anyone else, which is fine, don’t need the help, lol.

    Thanks for proving my point again, if us rightys disagree with a post, we post rebuttals.

    It seems you only get involved in something like this when it’s a Reagan post, never ever seen you challenge some of the ridiculous posts from the leftys.

    As a moderator, either be fair or simply stay out of it.
