Yes...Winchesters
Mine's a Trapper with an XS Sights scout scope base & an extended eye relief scope.
Mate has been running a .223 Browning BLR with bull barrel and Ruger Mini14 magazine conversion for close to 3 decades; only just sold it to get a Mossberg MVP.

Cool. But, Winchesters?? Really???
Marlins and Henrys too. The BLR isn't popular here for some reason.

Maybe coz they're twice the price?? (and worth every cent, I might add.....
) Course, I'm not biased at all....
You have to ask yourself... 'What would John Moses Browning do?'........pretty much anytime there's a serious choice to be made in life..... razz

First off, how do you shoot a revolver with that barrel length?? Use a bi-pod or something?????
Seriously the balance problem must be something fierce - I doubt I could handle one, really.
So, with this 'gallery' stuff, is it all static, firing-line stuff? Do you folks do any action-type shooting or 3-gun comps or Cowboy Action shoots - stuff like that??
What about stuff like a mare's leg which I think would theoretically fit the overall 24" rule and the 12" barrel rule? Can you use those??
Sorry for all the questions... inquiring minds want to know these things..... :)
cowboy action happens, i partake... bp pistols (Colt 1873's), a lever gun and a 1897 pump....
