Heya Trapper ☺ the site won't let me message you. I wrote and "sent" one but I got shot down because I don't have 50 posts. Being quiet has not paid off in this instance.
Heya do any of you have any experiences with both (or either brand) winchesters and marlins of the past 5 years or so?
In dreamland I've always wanted one of the Uberti Winchesters or a Chiappa Spencer rifle (not that I think of the Spencer as a lever gun in the traditional sense) but my...
My .22 Hatsan 95 with vortex gas piston is quite enjoyable and will do everything you said you want to do.
I got it from either airgun depot or pyramid air.
I was at someone's house yesterday and they were watching a show with the guy that used to be on Dark. Angel and NCIS. Not sure the title. Anyway wasn't paying it much attention until this part where the trial evidence video was of the dad leaving an indoor gun range. There was a sign saying...
I can't afford one, and couldn't afford the ammo even if I could buy the gun, but the Spencer carbine by Chiappa, or a Winchester by Uberti, or a Sharps by Pedersoli.
I'd just love to have one beautiful, old-timey gun. As it is though, I am strictly a quality utilitarian.

Oh as for dead-of-night hearing protection, my thought has always been, given my above-mentioned situation, I'll deal with it if I ever have to pull the trigger. All the literature says the indoor gunfire is so disorienting I figure okay let the intruder be disoriented. Down that hallway, unlike...
Since this is truly just bedside, not overall home defense, my edc Canik tp9sf is in a... Ummm... "Low ready bedside" spot, hidden to someone in the room but right where my right hand hits it given my fav sleeping position. That'd be the obvious choice for the previously mentioned "someone just...
I would think it's still situationally dependant for the people who listed electronic hearing protection. If the intruder just smashed their bedroom window open 3 feet from where they're sleeping, no ears and eyes.
If it's the famed mysterious bump in the night from downstairs or down the...
Wow I've never seen this type... Heck, not even sure what you call them. Locking wall mounts? More information or at least the brand name will be appreciated.
