Thanks for posting photos of the wood on this rifle.At some point in time I changed the sights on the Legendary Frontiersmen rifle, putting Williams on the rear, and I believe a Lyman on the front. Can't remember to be honest, that was many years ago. Got it out this morning, receiver was totally blacked and tarnished. Gave it a bit of a polish and took it out for some photos along with a couple of new M71s in 50 B&M AK.................. Here it is..............

Beautiful stuff.
Need a son?
LOL! Yeah. Usually I am a traditionalist when it comes to lever guns.
But it's just a Remlin, so who cares? And it was fun! LOL

The boss-man cut the stock down for me to get the length of pull right and re-fitted the pad. I couldn't stand the wood on black look so I painted the stock black. A few days (and a few shots of bourbon) later, I felt the need to put a little tiger stripe scheme to it. Not the most professional by any mean, but I don't regret it.

Michael,
At the last get together (October) at Billy's I was hoping to shoot the level action gun but it started raining.

I gave one a hell of a workout in Africa........
I have said it before but I must say it again, you have some awful pretty lever guns @Michael458
What is the cost of getting a Marlin converted.
Do you start with a 45/70?
This could get interesting.
@Michael458
