Hello from West Michigan

Post by BABore » Fri Nov 25, 2022 10:09 pm

Hello all, just joined up. I'm a long time levergun owner, but only JM Marlins. Hopefully a Henry 44 Mag is in my future.

Been reloading for the last 40+ years and casting for the last 20 or so. Designed and built custom bullet molds (BRP) for several years when I had a machine shop.

I went from collecting Marlins then switched to S&W revolvers when I got my fill.

Welcome from Eastern Washington State.

Been down both the rabbit holes you mentioned, JM Marlins and S&W’s. Now I’m wandering around in the Henry world but being retired my gun budget is more limited.

Enjoy your time here on HRF, it’s a quality site.

Hey BA. Welcome from Nebraska. Enjoy the gang here. Hope you find your 44 soon.

Welcome to the family from South Central Oklahoma. Jump right in, post, ask questions, and share. Pictures, we like pictures. Your rifles, guns, trucks, hobbies, fish, boats? You get the idea. We might pick on you, but it'll all be in good fun. The mods wouldn't allow anything else, this IS a family.

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
