The class was fantastic. An Instructor couldn’t ask for a better group of Students. Former Marine and his Daughter, A Tactical Cowboy, an experienced shooter wanting to sharpen his skills… and then we had The Gun Dudes.
This was a Basic Level Course, so it was mostly Old Hat to some of the guys here… but we all still had a good time. The more advanced level shooters were still challenged in one particularly simple, yet difficult drill… and we saw the guys work hard to do it right. I was going to say more about the course… but those that have been to a Crusader course know what went down and those that haven’t yet, well, you gotta come out.
+1 Man points to the guy with the lever action!
Was the lever gun broken in that picture? I’m much more familiar with the Marlin so maybe that’s normal for a Winchester action but it seems to me with the lever so for forward the hammer should already be cocked.
If you look closely, the bolt is starting to come back to push the hammer back.
Thanks. I never really noticed that about the Winchester action.
