That is a really nice looking leather wrap. I have never used a wrap but when I do I think I’ll look into the solid leather piece like yours. Well done!

This guy makes a nice one Hatch. But I know ur gonna win one.


Thanks Al, I watched the video and now I understand how to do a baseball stitch as mentioned by Retiredguns. I’ll be getting a few of these in the future.

Retiredguns, great pics with the revolvers.

'guns, I'm really liking that Henry! Nice, simple lever wrap you put on also. Nice touch. Also the older Colt is just, well, awesome! Nice collection you have going.

Very nice rifle. UPS dropped of my 357 carbine with side gate last night. I was keeping busy all day trying to make the time pass. It is beautiful. I will shoot it today.

I took my Dad on a road trip yesterday so he could trade a rifle for a shotgun with someone he knows. Driving through the country I started thinking about moving to some property where I can shoot when I want. My Wife said, "You want to spend a couple hundred grand so you can shoot your $799 rifle?" Yep.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

If it is a house to her liken, it could probably be anywhere, even on a 20-40 acre lot. ;) I am thinking about doing something similar.

Doesn't have to be a large acreage either. 6 to 15 in the RIGHT location with a dirt/sand berm will work fine. Find a place in a rural/farm district surrounded with woods and few homes around if you can.
