Not long ago I had to sell off some things, and one collector made me an offer for my SCW collection, dragoons, 22 Tula M91 and all. Time to start over I guess.Miller Tyme wrote:That is one cool SCW M91, I still need an M91 and a dragoon to round out my SCW group.

On Facebook? Check out the non-sporter preservationist group at: OOOPS. Deleted by Facebook because it's evil to even discuss collectible firearms on social media these days.

Very cool and another first for me. Usually you see the newer barrels with the old receivers. This is the first time I have seen a newer receiver on an older barrel..

The original receiver might have gotten shot up and they replaced it.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Sweet rifle!!
“The beauty of the Second Amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it.”
― Thomas Jefferson
“The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles.”
