Looks just like mine.  What caliber is it?  Mine is 44 Spl.  I had it altered to shoot the 44 Russians.

Bear with me a bit.  Trinity is teaching me how to post pictures.

The first one is an "ivory" inlay on a '73 stock done by Russ N. Hound from a necklace I wear.

The second one is a brass "surface mount" on a '66 stock.  Russ did the bird as an experiment (I don't think he offers such a thing regularly, though.  Mighty pricey.  You'd have to check with him.) the "tacks" are brass nails with approximately 1/16 heads.  Not traditional or authentic, but I like it.

Hey, look!  It worked!

Thanks, little brother.

Now, how do I make 'em smaller, but enlargeable?

Good job!!

But did you move one of the files or is my computer acting up.  It's not showing me the second picture.  I'll send you an email...

Ten minutes ago I could get both pics to come up.  Now only one does.

What's goin' on?

Have we just entered the Twilight Zone?

They're both BAAAaaaack.

Spooky. 

Sometimes I wish I haden't given up drinking all those years ago.  When I was drunk these things made sense more often, and if they didn't I didn't much care...even when I could remember it.

I'm getting messages that not everyone can see both of my rifle stocks  toward the end of page 5.  Would someone let me know if there's a problem? 

Thanks.

This is one of my favorite threads.... I love the look of the 1860 Henry and the 1866 "Henry Improved" Winchester

I don't see as many "iron" framed versions as I thought I would, but, still though, the Henry is my favorite rifle for SASS/CAS/NCOWS events.

good work everyone!!!

Here's mine....
Besides having a refinished stock, (without sanding or removing any wood) & (can't stand the blood red walnut they come with) it has about a $100.00 worth of solid head brass tacks...and a 1861 confederate half dollar as a front sight... I distressed the stock by leaving most of the dings in it, and added a few to give it a good used look....
