I see that Dixie has their Cub on sale for $475. It is a .32 cal but might be worth checking out.

 

[Tommy Bruce]

It's just north of Jackson on St. Rt. 35. The exit is marked and then you just follow the signs. It's an old 4H camp. There are some pretty cool caves and rock houses there too. It's also where I took my first trek. I believe the hours are 9-5 on Saturday and 9-4 on Sunday.

 

[captaincaveman]

Thanks, I'll probably be there tommorrow :thumbsup:

Hey J.D.,
Checked out the site you mentioned. Not bad....not bad at all :thumbsup: .

 

[captaincaveman]

well I did it. I bit the bullet and ordered a Southern rifle kit from TVM. Plain maple stock, 42" .36 cal. Long Hammock barrel, small siler lock, and #4 Davis triggers. Ed Cain knows a feller that is going to put it together in the white for me, and I'll finish it. I'm gonna end up spending a bit more than $600 :rotfI have the best wife ever!!!), but it should be well worth it. Now I just need some idea's on what color to stain the stock, and what's the best way to go about browning the metal :hmm: . Thanks for all the advice yall :hatsoff:

Hot dang :applause: ! I'm so happy for you. You owe your wife a big one! Valentines Day is coming up :rotf: . I used Laurel Mountain Forge Barrel Brown & Degreaser from Track of the Wolf on my GPR. Real easy to use and gave me a very nice brown finish. I used eight coats of linseed oil on my stock, which turned out great. My stock is walnut. Don't know how it would work on maple. I'm sure others in here can give advise on that. Anyway, a big congrat on your chose :thumbsup: .

 

[captaincaveman]

yeah, I owe her big :bow: . I just ordered it yesterday and I'm already getting impatient. I want this thing yesterday :grin:
