I am a traditional gun guy that loves a wood stock and blued steel....But I have to say you have built an awesome rifle that takes an old action and makes it look so modern and kick butt....Space Cowboy is a perfect name and nice to be able to defend yourself from the 2 legged animals....Good stuff....
Lever guns have a place. It is the time period between the introduction of the metallic cartridges and the invention of the detachable box magazine. How come no one makes these accessories for a browning high wall?
So I dressed up as a pimp one year for Halloween at work. Had a little kid approach me, I'm guessing he was 5 or 6 and he asked me if I was a space cowboy. I couldn't help but laugh and told him yup! He said "oh cool" 🤣
They've been modding lever actions with suppressors, optics, specialist sights, stock mounted shell holders and the like since Winchester, Marlin and others made them mainstream. Theodore Roosevelt had suppressors on his lever actions. If polymer and stainless steel was available back then I'm absolutely certain we'd have seen them made with those materials and likely more of them than wood and carbon steel. While the orange army of Pabst Blue Ribbon sponges will flip out and tell you this is heresy, the guys circa 1890 would have loved this stuff.
Everything but the stock, reminds me of that Mossberg black rifle they had. I know what you’ll say, but I can’t help it, sorry. Otherwise she’s a beauty and I’m a lever action guy. Rock on, do love Ranger Point too. God Bless Texas 🤙🏼❤️🇺🇸🤠
This has a strange new beauty to it. You'd expect to see this rifle in the SciFi series Firefly. I like the ammo round carriers which are great for hunting.
Aahhhh! Blasphemy! 😆 🤣 😂 But seriously. I have a Marilyn 336, 30-30, Era 1980 and love it. But I do appreciate what you have there brother. Now I can not do this to my rifle but I am getting an itch to buy a new one and space cowboy it up. Thank you for bringing new life to one of the very best rifles ever made. Love you brother
I'll stick with my traditional leverguns but I do like how handy the sling looks on this monstrosity. I see the utility in some ways. Recently dumped a bunch old Marlin and Winchester leverguns. Cool stuff like old 1886's, 1895 winchesters, marlin 45-70 and 44mags, and a few model 71 348 winchesters. Ended up paying for some vehicle repairs.

I agree. 30-30 is way more capable then some give it credit for. Yes its a flat nose but that doesn’t degrade its preferences as much as ppl say. 200 yards. 250. Maybe 300 if you are good enough.
I have been trying to find the accessory parts for this build you laid them all out and even gave separate input on each. You saved me hours of searching these components out! Excellent video! Thank you!
When it comes to lever guns, I consider myself old school. However that being said, I'm gonna put something like this together for myself. I really dig this setup. Not only would it be light weight, its form and function would be top notch over the norm Marlin 30/30. I'm an avid outdoorsman and hunter, and I can see several benefits of carrying this firearm on a long hike/hunt where my longer shots would be around 200 yards in the open. Needless to say there are also thick brush on my property.
That build is fantastic. I like the wood as a traditional offering, but if I am going to use it...that is the one I would like to use in the field. Wow.

I think it's a pretty cool rifle. There's room for traditional and modern, and it's good to see manufacturers exploring the outer limits of what can be done to a lever-action rifle. It looks like the parts are very high-quality, too.
That thing is sick. I love old guns, but we have modern technology that can make those classics so much better. This is what modern lever guns should be straight out of the factory.
Everything I love about old Lever Actions from watching westerns, and shooting with my dad as a kid. Mixed with the modern aesthetic that my newer generation cant get enough of. Whats not to like?!
Fantastic 30-30, I'm a traditional lever action guy but that look's great. Another channel that does up their lever action rifle's is Wolf's Prairie Outdoors and yesterday they were working on their new 1895 SBL Marlin. Have a great night all my 2A friend's.
I grew up hunting and the 30-30 was a big part of that but the guns I enjoy the most are defensive firearms so I like this set up. I carry a gun everyday all the time, even at home and I train with my guns so I can defend myself and my family but I have to say I've had more confrontations with "Fudds" while hunting then in normal society, and I haven't really done a whole lot of hunting in the last 10 years. I don't know if people have started to take hunting way too seriously or if walking around with a gun, when they normally wouldn't, gives then a superiority complex, but hunters are the most confrontational people I have come across. The worst part is they are purely relying on me being "nicer" then them. Honestly, these people are stupid! They are taking a horrible risk because they have no idea if I'm the kind of person who would shoot them and bury them in the woods. I'm not of course but they don't know that. I've seen a guy and his granddaughter confront me and my family, all of which were armed by the way, because they believed they owned the road we were on. They didn't want the the Sheriff involved though, because they didn't own the road they just wanted to hunt where no one else could. I've had a guy yell at me in the middle of the woods because I was shooting on my own land the day before. He though the noise would scare all the deer away, but his yelling that was OK of course. I had another guy stop his pickup in the middle of the Highway in from of my house and yell at me, from his pickup because me and some friends were shooting the afternoon before deer season. I'm sorry guys but these people are giving hunters a bad name. Fudds are jerks! Don't be a Fudd!
I think hunters get territorial. They see you as competition because the wildlife is uncontrollable. If you're anywhere near their stand or blind, you are likely to get "their" animals.
@@PatRMG Agreed. However, The last time I wasn't even hunting, just letting some new shooters experience some of my guns in my back yard. I think they forget that hunting is supposed to be relaxing and fun and they think everyone else is supposed to be just as anxious and wound up as they are about it.
I think this problem is getting worse. All this social media has had a very negative effect on social skills, and inconsiderate behavior seems to be everywhere I look.
@@upcycle.outdoorsman9629 Agreed, People have forgotten how to be polite and considerate to one another. They have been hiding behind their computer screens for so long that they forget that their words can have consequences. They don't see how their words hurt those on the other side of the screen so they don't think they need to be polite when they actually interact with people. Most of all, they have not been punched in the mouth for saying something stupid, and it shows.
My region has had a serious issue with Fudds shooting people during hunting season, and not just a few. We had 5 “I thought they were a deer” shootings in our county in public land adjacent to parks with children last season. These degenerates have hit 3 kids in 4 years, one of them sitting in the open on a rock in the head. Many of them never see a cell at all, and the only one who had real charges was the guy who shot the kid fatally, and those were accidental manslaughter charges. There is also an obscene level of poaching in the area. It is to the point I don’t hunt anywhere that isn’t off a porch.
Definitely a gun you didn’t know you needed but once you have one will easily become your favorite in the collection… I need this need but-stock complete my no wood upgrade been waiting for a new stock love this !
Pat awesome content as always, that stock looks like they crossbred the Mare's Leg with a Transformer. Cool to see options like this one and the other stock from Chisel Machining coming out.
I am a traditional wood guy as well but also a modernized as well. I've been wanting to do this for a while. Only problem is it makes them scary so they get out on the ban list. Like Steve crouder he had a table of firearms and uniformed idiots always pointed at the black guns that should be banned when there was way more powerful firearms on the table. I do modernized builds if my customers ask me to. But some times I get parts for restoration with no stock so that's what got me into things like this. My favorite was m14 I did all polymer with adjustable pistol brace with the two metal rods. And I did a modern garand. A whole bunch of older 22s I had a recent 3d print for a Marlin 22 came out decent but I was just able to find a wooden stock on gun broker so she's getting restored. And my apsolutely favorite I have a traditional with cleaning kit 1896 steyr gewehr 8mm beautiful wood. I received a second in rough shape broken stock I'm working on making a custom long range competition rifle with it with polymer and cheek riser picatilly and m lock. It's going to be a fun project polymer and aluminum.
I've had a Marlin 336-C since the early 80's. I've always loved hunting with it, and I've put a backstrap or two in the freezer with it. I like the wood and blue, but I have GOT to get one of those "space cowboy" rifles. Heck, I'm the guy who carries a Mare's Leg in his truck. Two great-big "thumbs up" for the space cowboy, from this Kentucky boy! 👍👍
gorgeous setup. lever guns have always been in the back of my mind but stayed there due to lack of options for ergonomics. your video is really bringing a big bore lever gun back to the front of my must by list.
Such a sexy rifle 😍 Love that you're teaming up with NAGR as well. Dudley Brown over there was running the RMGO (Rocky Mountain Gun Owners) as well until last year but is still part of the organization. You the man Pat, and I love you too
You are right Pat, that ain't my Grandaddy's 30-30. It is a Winchester 94 manufactured in 1950ish. Still as good as new. Still putting meat in the freezer. That being said, I like that Tactical Cowboy👍
I let a former friend borrow my model 336 that I bought new in 1978. It was my first firearm of any kind. In one day he destroyed my stock. I have been sick about this for years. Thank you very much for showing me the solution!!!!!!
I've been slowly and secretly (my old lady would kill me if she knew that I was spending more money on guns) buying all the ranger point parts and building out my 336. My buddies were talking shit about it when I told them what I was doing, but after they saw it and shot it they were jealous. I love wood and steel guns and wouldn't change anything on most of my lever guns, but decking out a cheap 336 scratched a itch that I didn't know that I had.
First time I ever watched your channel. Loved your commentary. That’s a really cool set up. I favor my Marlin 44 magnum. And I would love to set up like that.
3030 still my favorite gun in the world. I’m 65 now. I got my first deer when I was 13 with a Winchester 3030 at just about 250 yards ( neck shot ). It took my brother and I 2 hours to bring it out of the ravine. My dad said it was up to us to get it to the truck. My brother went with me because I never gutted a deer before so he showed me how. It dressed out to 70lbs. It was the start of my love affair with the 3030.
There are two different lever actions i like. Cowboy guns, and space cowboy guns. Space cowboy lever actions are by far my favourite, especially if you still manage to keep a little bit of leather and wood on it, mixed in with the space. Never ever seen this kind of stock before, and i will say that this is my favourite non wood stock i have ever seen! Normally i go for all the rails and attachments, but keep a wood buttstock, but your fancy stock has me reconsidering
I know I bust your balls on the "BUBBA GUNS", but I like firearm technology an this is a definitely new technology for an older platform. They damn sure did it right for this, or in other words I really dig this setup, finally a BUBBA GUN I can get behind. On a side note, the 30- 30 is no slouch at all, I've killed alot of deer an hogs with mine, an own a Win an 2 marlins, one being a 1960 marlin 20 in with a factory marlin 3x9 scope, an the other a TK Marlin 30-30, which was a limited run 30-30 made for K- mart for about 2 yrs, I just liked it because it was so short for a brush gun. You done good on this vid, consider yourself redeemed, but just this once tho. Lol.
I bought a Marlin 3030 when I graduated HS in 67.. used it 1 year before I was drafted in the army so I sold it to my brother. Finally got it back but we don't Hunt in a rifle zone anymore. Sure doesn't look like this one though
this is cool, keeps more traditional aspects while upgrading it to modern day tech. (old tech still works well, but n+1 is how many guns you should own)
The not having taste joke deserves a 👍, if you don't agree you're skipping class. Edit: quick question, out of the lpvos's you've tested (riton, athlon, vortex ect..) which do you prefer?
Ummm.....SIMPLY OUTSTANDING!!!! I have my Winchester that my Father bought me when I was 12! My fav rifle!! OUTSTANDING!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 As far as weight.....I COULD CARE LESS!! I am going to UPGRADE my 30-30!! My humble opinion, I would use use over & under scope sights. But, I love brush. 30-30 is a lot more than most guys think. Roughly doubled of a .44 mag...from what I remember reading.
I won't say I don't like it cuz it is pretty cool but I prefer wood sorry. Like you said it's not grandaddy's 30-30. It most likely won't never be mine either.
Nice rifle! I love to hunt with a lever rifle. Mine is a stainless 336 MXLR in .308 ME. It has a Williams FP with a brass Skinner front. I use cast, gas checked bullets and 2400. Bought it when they first came out. A deer taking tool for sure.
This is the first time I have seen your video. Man bro I love what you did to that rifle. That's awesome and being a lever action fan now I have to build one. Wow that's a great gun with attitude. Love it.
Thanks for sharing Ranger point Precision. I have wanted a lever gun for a while. But any lever gun I buy I will be adding another caliber. Ugh. I really liked the Mossberg but never bought one. It took a long time for lever guns to finally catch up to the modern age. Because when I buy one I want it scoped and a threaded barrel to add a suppressor. It seemed it took a long time for lever guns to catch up. Now to decide on a caliber. Lever guns have been hard to find for a while in my area.
"I freaking love this thing! If you don't like it, I swear, I'd go get tested for the coof because the first sign is not having any taste" (Pat RMG 2022). 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is a smexy build. Makes me want to go get another marlin to play with. Got a .44 already, but it is a heirloom gun so I ain't modding it. Would love to do something like that with a busted up garand too. Breathe some new life into a beat up old warbird.
I own land out in the country in Virginia and I appreciate that you use a suppressor when you’re out hunting. I’ve got neighbors who live in the city and when they bought the lot of land next to my house they used to come out and just blaze away with ARs every weekend….that’s fine like once every couple of months. But ya know it’s my Sunday too and I live out here for peace and quiet. I really appreciate a hunter who makes the extra effort.
It’s just funny because they come out to the lot next door to blaze away thinking that just because it’s the country it’s fine. I’ve got 5 guns of my own and I would never do that. If I’m shooting on my property, it’s with my .22 with a can. Otherwise I go to the range and shoot my bigger pieces. I just appreciate that you keep your shooting discrete.
I just moved from MA to NH so the first thing I did was head to the gun ‘n tackle shop. I totally have a new hobby and passion. I’m drawn to lever action rifles so thanks for content like this and you get a subscribe my man
Due to the fact that Canada sucks and we are getting slammed with gun bans left and right this is guaranteed my next build! Thank you so much for all the info and the great video!
Really like Marlin 336. FYI it is a pain in the butt to find any parts. Recently Remington purchased Marlin and they do not have parts or warranty work for the 336 at the moment. Ruger told me I'm on my own with finding a ejector with spring. Just thought I'd throw that out there if you're going to buy one if anything goes wrong with it you're on your own.
Okay okay... It's not THAT bad 😂 Took me a minute but yeah, pretty cool little set up. I'm sure that new trigger helped. Take down screw is cool & getting rid of the safety was a good move. Nice 30-30. Different but in a good way. I like it. Space Cowboy!!! Thanks for sharing 👍

tactical look 😉

That's an awesome upgrade for this venerable and still efficient go-to rifle !
gorgeous setup. lever guns have always been in the back of my mind but stayed there due to lack of options for ergonomics. your video is really bringing a big bore lever gun back to the front of my must by list.
Make that list happen!
She keeps getting better and better! Absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks a ton and thanks for watching!
Such a sexy rifle 😍 Love that you're teaming up with NAGR as well. Dudley Brown over there was running the RMGO (Rocky Mountain Gun Owners) as well until last year but is still part of the organization. You the man Pat, and I love you too
Just one video from NAGR at the moment, but I'm thankful nonetheless! 😘
Informative, hilarious and entertaining. Enjoyed ! Beautiful Marlin !
Glad you enjoyed it!
You are right Pat, that ain't my Grandaddy's 30-30. It is a Winchester 94 manufactured in 1950ish. Still as good as new. Still putting meat in the freezer. That being said, I like that Tactical Cowboy👍
That's awesome to still be putting meat in the freezer with it!
@@PatRMG Well my oldest boy is. I have not shot one with it since I gave it to him. This year it was all Turkish Recurve.
Thank you NAGR! One of the best groups out there.
Absolutely. Support those who support us!
Man this is my kind of Lever Action thank you for sharing. I wonder if there is a custom skeletonized single action revolver out there to match
There may or may not be one in the works. Wink wink.
Right off the bat the coolest looking lever action I've seen
Thanks a megaton!
You have one of the most glorious boomsticks there I've ever seen Sir. Also, you are both hilarious and have superb talent 👏 👌 👍
I really appreciate that!
I do love a traditional Lever but man you did an awesome job with this name just tops it off
Thanks a bunch!
@@PatRMG ugliest rifle to ever exist on the face of planet earth
This is pure sexiness!
Much agreed!
I let a former friend borrow my model 336 that I bought new in 1978. It was my first firearm of any kind. In one day he destroyed my stock. I have been sick about this for years. Thank you very much for showing me the solution!!!!!!
1:42 - "I don't want some purple haired cubicle dweller to decide my fate"
I've been slowly and secretly (my old lady would kill me if she knew that I was spending more money on guns) buying all the ranger point parts and building out my 336. My buddies were talking shit about it when I told them what I was doing, but after they saw it and shot it they were jealous. I love wood and steel guns and wouldn't change anything on most of my lever guns, but decking out a cheap 336 scratched a itch that I didn't know that I had.
Find my email address in the about page and send me a pic!
First time I ever watched your channel. Loved your commentary. That’s a really cool set up. I favor my Marlin 44 magnum. And I would love to set up like that.
I'd say do it!
He’s a breath of genuine fresh air in an overly tactarded industry.
3030 still my favorite gun in the world. I’m 65 now. I got my first deer when I was 13 with a Winchester 3030 at just about 250 yards ( neck shot ). It took my brother and I 2 hours to bring it out of the ravine. My dad said it was up to us to get it to the truck. My brother went with me because I never gutted a deer before so he showed me how. It dressed out to 70lbs. It was the start of my love affair with the 3030.
Thanks for sharing! I love these stories!
Love it - I’m about to pimp out my Henry 45-70 model X in this exact same way
There are two different lever actions i like.
Cowboy guns, and space cowboy guns.
Space cowboy lever actions are by far my favourite, especially if you still manage to keep a little bit of leather and wood on it, mixed in with the space.
Never ever seen this kind of stock before, and i will say that this is my favourite non wood stock i have ever seen! Normally i go for all the rails and attachments, but keep a wood buttstock, but your fancy stock has me reconsidering
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
I know I bust your balls on the "BUBBA GUNS", but I like firearm technology an this is a definitely new technology for an older platform. They damn sure did it right for this, or in other words I really dig this setup, finally a BUBBA GUN I can get behind. On a side note, the 30- 30 is no slouch at all, I've killed alot of deer an hogs with mine, an own a Win an 2 marlins, one being a 1960 marlin 20 in with a factory marlin 3x9 scope, an the other a TK Marlin 30-30, which was a limited run 30-30 made for K- mart for about 2 yrs, I just liked it because it was so short for a brush gun. You done good on this vid, consider yourself redeemed, but just this once tho. Lol.
I'll call this one "BUBBA gun redemption" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bought a Marlin 3030 when I graduated HS in 67.. used it 1 year before I was drafted in the army so I sold it to my brother. Finally got it back but we don't Hunt in a rifle zone anymore. Sure doesn't look like this one though
Oh man. I'd enjoy that 67 and never modify it!
Nice buck bubba! "hear the purists from orbit" lol X 10 love it!!!
thinking bout marrying this rifle right now it is speaking to my soul
Ahh yeah!
this is cool, keeps more traditional aspects while upgrading it to modern day tech. (old tech still works well, but n+1 is how many guns you should own)
I like that. N+1 is a rolling scale that is always adaptable!
That thing is amazing! Nice build I want one.
“Purple haired cubicle dweller “ that’s golden man 😂😂 this is why you have my support man! Rock on
Glad you enjoyed that!
I'm not a purist I do prefer wood but that is beyond cool dude
Thanks Joe!
The not having taste joke deserves a 👍, if you don't agree you're skipping class.
Edit: quick question, out of the lpvos's you've tested (riton, athlon, vortex ect..) which do you prefer?
I've not tried Athlon yet. Riton beats Vortex in that price range.
Ummm.....SIMPLY OUTSTANDING!!!! I have my Winchester that my Father bought me when I was 12! My fav rifle!! OUTSTANDING!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
As far as weight.....I COULD CARE LESS!! I am going to UPGRADE my 30-30!!
My humble opinion, I would use use over & under scope sights. But, I love brush.
30-30 is a lot more than most guys think. Roughly doubled of a .44 mag...from what I remember reading.
Great info thanks can't go wrong with Ranger Point precision. Their clover leaf sights are solid!
I put their clover on my Henry 44 that we chopped and threaded. I like it.
How get Jayne Cobb lever gun? He love almost much as Vera.
I got it very carefully!
@@PatRMG many careful indeed
see you, Space Cowboy...
Yeah buddy!
Finally got my rager point precision mlock and stock for my Marlin 30 30. Its so amazing. Thanks for this video.
Purple haired cubicle dweller, hahahaha. Has to be the funniest thing I have heard in a while. Love it! haha. thumbs up just for that alone!
Glad you liked it!
My only deer gun is a 30-30
Proven deer slayer
Absolutely!
I won't say I don't like it cuz it is pretty cool but I prefer wood sorry. Like you said it's not grandaddy's 30-30. It most likely won't never be mine either.
My next two are wood. And really cool too!
@@PatRMG
There's nothing like wood and metal they're very beautiful together. Nothing sparkles like a Holland and Holland.
Nice rifle! I love to hunt with a lever rifle. Mine is a stainless 336 MXLR in .308 ME. It has a Williams FP with a brass Skinner front. I use cast, gas checked bullets and 2400. Bought it when they first came out. A deer taking tool for sure.
Sounds awesome! Thanks for watching!
huh i have never heard of the .308me. that is cool. im guessimg they have balisti tips to be safer in a lever action, or flat nosed?
Nice! I went with the Midwest industries handguard, and the chisel machining stock on my Marlin 336 dark.
I can appreciate you like it, but its not for me. What a boring life we would have if we all liked the same things!!
Variety is the spice of life!
Pat, Another good video. Very nice gun setup. Thanks for sharing and take care.
Thanks a ton, Bobcat!
This is the first time I have seen your video. Man bro I love what you did to that rifle. That's awesome and being a lever action fan now I have to build one. Wow that's a great gun with attitude. Love it.
Thanks a ton, Jimmy!
I have the Henry Model X 30-30 was the RP hand guard. Going to order the stock too, thing looks so nice like that!!!
I love it!!! Excellent personality as well!!
Super thanks!
Very nice …..perfect amount of modern on that riffle ……. Great video
Thanks a bunch, James!
Thanks for sharing Ranger point Precision. I have wanted a lever gun for a while. But any lever gun I buy I will be adding another caliber. Ugh. I really liked the Mossberg but never bought one. It took a long time for lever guns to finally catch up to the modern age. Because when I buy one I want it scoped and a threaded barrel to add a suppressor. It seemed it took a long time for lever guns to catch up. Now to decide on a caliber. Lever guns have been hard to find for a while in my area.
Levers will be hard to get until Marlin goes full production. Henry is building a second plant. Then, we'll all be able to have levers!
From a Volunteer to another, keep it up. One of my favorite dudes.. you got my taste buds when it comes to freedom tools.
Thanks a ton, Jacob! Gotta keep those taste buds drooling over something. 😋
John Wick Chapter 4 shows the tactical lever gun some love. It was fun seeing that in the movie.
"I freaking love this thing! If you don't like it, I swear, I'd go get tested for the coof because the first sign is not having any taste" (Pat RMG 2022). 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Glad you got a laugh!
Brother that Rifle looks amazing. Enjoy!
Thanks a ton and thanks for watching!
That is a smexy build. Makes me want to go get another marlin to play with. Got a .44 already, but it is a heirloom gun so I ain't modding it. Would love to do something like that with a busted up garand too. Breathe some new life into a beat up old warbird.
I own land out in the country in Virginia and I appreciate that you use a suppressor when you’re out hunting. I’ve got neighbors who live in the city and when they bought the lot of land next to my house they used to come out and just blaze away with ARs every weekend….that’s fine like once every couple of months. But ya know it’s my Sunday too and I live out here for peace and quiet. I really appreciate a hunter who makes the extra effort.
It’s just funny because they come out to the lot next door to blaze away thinking that just because it’s the country it’s fine. I’ve got 5 guns of my own and I would never do that. If I’m shooting on my property, it’s with my .22 with a can. Otherwise I go to the range and shoot my bigger pieces. I just appreciate that you keep your shooting discrete.
I just moved from MA to NH so the first thing I did was head to the gun ‘n tackle shop. I totally have a new hobby and passion. I’m drawn to lever action rifles so thanks for content like this and you get a subscribe my man
Welcome to the channel!
Hey man.... I love my classic 336, but heck that is suuuuper cool
"If you don't like it? I swear, I'd go get tested for the CooF,cause the first sign is not havin any taste." LMAOOOOO
Glad you liked it!
What a gorgeous gun, The Space Cowboy Gun is beautiful. Great video man, that was awesome to watch.
Thanks a bunch and thanks for watching!
Due to the fact that Canada sucks and we are getting slammed with gun bans left and right this is guaranteed my next build! Thank you so much for all the info and the great video!
Really like Marlin 336. FYI it is a pain in the butt to find any parts. Recently Remington purchased Marlin and they do not have parts or warranty work for the 336 at the moment. Ruger told me I'm on my own with finding a ejector with spring. Just thought I'd throw that out there if you're going to buy one if anything goes wrong with it you're on your own.
You had me subbing at the 2 min mark. Looking forward to digging through your videos for more content! Long live the lever gun!
Welcome to the channel!
Really slick thing you've done here. I'd mod a 336 to this any day. Fantastic and thank you.
Thanks a ton and thanks for watching!
I dig it man.
What a perfect name for it too. 👊
Space Cowboy for the win! Super thanks!
That stock is the coolest modern lever gun peace I have ever seen
Gonna have to agree with you!
Okay okay... It's not THAT bad 😂
Took me a minute but yeah, pretty cool little set up. I'm sure that new trigger helped. Take down screw is cool & getting rid of the safety was a good move. Nice 30-30. Different but in a good way. I like it. Space Cowboy!!! Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching!
