Marlinitis is contagious........ almost of epidimic proportions around here. I wonder if wearing one of those surgical masks while posting here will help? ;D
Marlinitus is a virus that can sit dormant for months and will strike when the immune system is taxed as yours is fighting the flu. Hope you get better soon! ;Dyukondog said:No the Marlinitis germ will still get through, there is no cure or hope so the only thing to do is to give in.
Interesting, did they have any of the 20" round barrels in 45 Colt yet? the 16"er Should make a great little thumper! I forget, was your gun already a 45 caliber?planeflyer21 said:Have a cold or the flu I've been trying to hold off since before my unexpected trip.
So THAT will be my excuse for giving in to my (our) other sickness which shall remain unspoken.
Somebody used my credit card and ordered an 1894S barrel from Numrich this afternoon, in .45 Colt, measuring 16 1/4" long and stamped "Ohio Gun Collectors Association". I don't reckon I'll send it back. 8)
Looks like I'll be cutting the magazine tube soon too.
Most of the progress on this will probably turn up in the "Tactical Leverguns" thread.

Yeah, please put a mask on so you don't infect the rest of us. ;Dbowhunter472401 said:Marlinitis is contagious........ almost of epidimic proportions around here. I wonder if wearing one of those surgical masks while posting here will help? ;D
Yup...found it awhile back for $399.99! It is a birch stock version but I've had so much trouble finding a round barrel, I didn't care. The 16"er is an impulse buy I've been thinking about for months ;D since I found the barrels at Numrich.eaglesnest said:Interesting, did they have any of the 20" round barrels in 45 Colt yet? the 16"er Should make a great little thumper!

Oh man I love that! ;D ;D And I have fallen victim to it my whole life as a construction electrician but never heard it put quite that way Much of my life was spent working 7-10's or more and then a fair amount was laid off when times were slow.. .. Now I am retired and living on a pension I am busier than ever, and still don't have enough time or money.. I tangle with the money aspect by selling things I don't use. When the 1895 came to me I sold my MIG welder, when the 1894 came I sold my utility trailer, etc etc... Didn't use that stuff anyhow..Charlie98 said:Being caught in the Galactal Time/Money Continum (when you have money, you don't have the time and vice versa...)
But, like me, eventually you will run out of stuff to sell... Speaking of which, has everyone seen my ads in the Classifieds here at MO?... ;Deaglesnest said:Oh man I love that! ;D ;D And I have fallen victim to it my whole life as a construction electrician but never heard it put quite that way Much of my life was spent working 7-10's or more and then a fair amount was laid off when times were slow.. ..
