I had a metal toy one that cocked and blew air out the front when I was very young. I’ve always wanted one but only seen one that was not for sale in a gun store. Today, that same gun store had one for sale in 30’06. 412,xxx sn# range. I finally have one!    This message has been edited. Last edited by: KPSquared, Thanks, KPSquared | ||

".30 GOV'T '06", no less. That's gorgeous! (Sigh.) I think I'm going to have to start saving up for one of those in .30-40, just because. | |||

If Teddy was still with us he would say... Bully! I have wanted a Saddle Ring Carbine 95 in 30-06 forever. I had one in my hands last winter but was too broke to buy it.  End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

Nice find! I would've whipped the wallet out lightening fast for that one. | |||

Thank you all. It was the one firearm that that was “buy on sight” for me.
No, not yet, but I’m looking forward to it. Thanks, KPSquared | |||

I applaud your common sense in buying something you want when you first see it. The more usual thing is to wait a week and its gone. Some smarter guy sees it and buys it on the spot. Unhappy ammo seeker | |||

Very cool! I've wanted one in .30-06 for 25 years. --------------------------- My hovercraft is full of eels. | |||

Got it home today. I’ll update with more pictures in the near future. Manufacture date was 1921. The trigger is fantastic!  This message has been edited. Last edited by: KPSquared, Thanks, KPSquared | |||

Looks drilled and tapped for a Lyman receiver sight. Shootable history! End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

Man that thing is cool! Looking forward to hearing how it shoots...I imagine .30-06 out of a levergun will be no slouch in the recoil department  ! | |||

My circa 1906 Model 94 in .32WS has the same narrow, crescent steel buttplate. Its a thumper. Men were men (and sore) in that era! End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||
