:D Well I am not patient and look forward to sending lead waaaay downrange with my new 1885 when it gets here...
Well, hopefully it won’t be long. However when it is all I keep telling myself is that in the long run that it’s worth the wait as long as I am getting what I want. Can’t always get that from something off the shelf.

Received my Buffalo Runner rifle covers from October Country. My Henry is in the lighter one, and the other waits for the new 1885 high wall...nice long fringe, well made. No frills....rustic. Smooth leather inside so rifle slides easy. My rifles are in socks inside these.

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.......
