Feets / Collection / My build New Gun Day!

Got a smoking deal at my LGS. Smith and Wesson model 1854 in 30-30. About time I added a lever gun to the collection.

Be wary of the cheap 38 special ammo if your chambered in 357. They won’t light up your day.

I bought a LOT of Wolf .30 reloads for my GP100 and they're so smoky other gun owners have asked whether it's black powder... the smoke is intense and it turns the stainless finish black real quick.
