Hope it's legit.  Together with my Sr1911 in 10mm this would make me Longmire😁

I actually like that a lot.

The 10mm can really gain a lot with a longer carbine barrel.  That's why I made my sixteen inch 10mm AR.

While it looks like a quality rifle, to this day I wasn't able to be fascinated by any old style firearms, lever actions, or shotguns. Its a miracle that I own 4 wheel guns - but they are all modern age.

Same with watches... I love modern Swiss and German made automatic dive watches but would never buy any old design, let alone old watches. A watch made from German submarine steel gets me going.

I built a below 4 pounds AR 15 some 9 years ago with mostly titanium parts. That's something I can be passionate about. But I'd also never try to do this in 10mm.

I'd love to build my own .338 Lapua, but parts are hard to come by.

Anyways... I'm glad you found something you are looking forward to.

Just when I thought I was about to stop buying more firearms this comes along and piques my interest.
Why?  Because I had begged Marlin for the 10mm Lever & Ruger for a 10mm Camp Carbine.

I downloaded the 1894 User Manual to have in my files...

Quote from: The_Shadow on Today at 08:28:57 AM MDTJust when I thought I was about to stop buying more firearms...

I arrived at that sentiment frequently this year. As a matter of facts, if I could have all the money back for EVERYTHING I currently own, I would do so.

There's easily stuff worth 300k in my house. I use maybe 10% of it. All but the master bedroom are turned into hobby rooms. There is so much stuff that I don't even remember buying it.

The other day I counted the screens in my household, such as TVs and monitors. I arrived at 18. Computer builds and laptops? Over 50. Devices that connect to my home network? Over a hundred. I run my own server rack with enterprise level CISCO hardware. There are 20 security cameras around and in my house. 3 separate alarm systems. Every room has its own media computer for streaming, and a computer build for gaming. You get the idea...

I own plenty of firearms that I didn't even use yet. Watches I never wore. Tools I never needed.

In recent times I find the concept of owning just 1 or 2 of each, instead of 5 or 10, or 30, refreshing.

When it comes to firearms, I should downsize to:

- G42 my daily carry
- G40 for HD
- my beloved 4 pound AR-15 build
- .327 FM Ruger GP100 for some reloading fun

All the reloading presses and tools for miles? I should downsize to:

- Redding T-7 turret - and that is it.

One really nice dive watch is all I really need and can wear at a time. Tudor Pelagos.

The older I get, the more I start believing in "less is more". Stuff starts to own us. The real world is out there in nature - to be explored. It just took me 50 years to understand.

@sqlbullet feel free to kick me and my posts out of this thread. Just rambling. I looked into this rifle and really tried to make excuses to get into lever action too. I truly look for opportunities to spend my money, every day. It is sad.
