Hey, it's not a new thing.

Have seen countless Model 94s that have been fitted with aftermarket sights, scope mounts of various kinds, sling swivels added, stocks cut down, and other stuff done to them.

And the variations done on M98s, 03s, and other less popular old mil rifles are endless.

Consider the visual differences between the pre-64 Win Model 70 standard rifle as compared with the glossy Weatherbys having white spacers and contrasting grip/forarm caps and inlays.

We all have different opinions about usefullness and visual appeal........................what one guy thinks is a piece of crap somebody else might think is cool.

So, we look and ponder the questions..........is it creative?.....is it useful?........or just a product of mental torment?

liliysdad, where is that stock and pic rail from on that Marlin?

IMO, the SxS is useless and the levergun is blasphemy. There I said it.

So you wouldnt mind getting shot with it?

Who ended up with that sporterized Mosin that was in the classifieds?

Had a synthetic stock and I think it was nickel-plated. Anyways...it belongs in this thread. Even though it's not my style, I thought it looked cool (or at least interesting).

ETA: Here it is.

"Patch" is now the proud owner of that rifle.

What on earth happened to the end of that barrel?

Probably not, after all two rounds of 12 ga. 00 buck would just piss him off.

It would make me a little mad too.

On the levergun, what is so tacticool on it anyway?
Don't get me wrong I have a "traditional" 30-30, but the one in the OP just looks to be a weather resistant varient...

The pic rail, Aimpoint micro, and flat black finish, I guess.

I think it's probably a helluva shooter. Those Marlin 336s are way fun.
