Found an old Ranger 22

Post by +dhic »

[attachment=3]image.jpg[/attachment]I bought an old ranger and a rough old 32wcf 1905 the other day. The old smith shoots very well for a 100 year old gun,
I was really surprised how good it's trigger is. I wound up giving him what he'd asked the smith and got the rifle thrown
In. I'll try this pic thing.+dhic

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Rongo, I wound up with $235 tied up in both guns shipped to my dealer. The old 32/20 Smiths bring stupid prices if
they are in good condition. One thing about it,I don't worry about holster wear on this one.

Good deal 8-) ; .32-20 revolvers, both Colt and Smith are highly collectable; I've always wanted one, either make.
