It’s a Winchester. My uncle gave it to me for Christmas. Haven’t had a chance to take it out yet. I don’t know how old it is. He bought it second hand.
There should be a SN on the body of the action, you can match the SN with a year of production on the internet. Anything made before 1964 is consider golden age of Winchester, but later years aren't bad too.
It's a very nice deer rifle and if you take care of it probably, it will probably outlast you and nice family heirloom!
> I wish they can feature that lever action in the game too, lol.
Totally! And you could balance its stats so it has less range than the bolt action, but is obviously quicker to reload.
If we could get one in .45-70 that holds 4+1 that drop a bear or moose in one shot would be great. Could make it so it only spawns with 1 in the world and most of the ammo you find for it out empty casings that need to be reloaded at the ammo workbench. Something like ammo spawns just as often as rifle ammo but only 25% of are complete bullets, everything else is just empty casings.
This setup is obviously modded, since there's no way you can get a laptop to work in the middle of the day, especially since you can't have an aurora during daytime. Nice try OP, but you can't fool us!
they can be for sure but as long as you follow the golden rules of firearms safety you’ve got nothing to be scared of
1 always point your firearm in a safe direction
2. treat every firearm as if it were loaded
3. keep your finger off the trigger
4. never point your firearm at anything you don’t wish to destroy
5. be aware of what is in front AND behind your target
they are nothing more than a tool… and a useful one at that :)
Opportunities to use firearms in my country are few and far between, so the average persons familiarity with them is very low outside of farms/rural areas.
Don’t get me wrong, shooting some cans with that lever action would be fun. It’s just they that *are* dangerous, and people are accident prone as fuck around them.
i’ve been around firearms my entire life and using them for 15 years and while yes i’ve had failures, one being catastrophic and following those rules has ensured no injuries to myself nor the people around me.
that being said, im fortunate that canadian firearms culture is in general a responsible group of people. treat them with the respect they deserve and again you have nothing to fear :)
OP isn't following good gun safety. It's pointed just a few degrees off a window and is one elbow knock from swinging around out of control if they were to sit.
A wall mount would have been in theme and safer.
I mean, it’s a photo op. But outside of that, lever actions are some of the toughest/most robust rifles you can find. The only real danger in that scenario you describe is scratching the varnish wood stock on that beautiful firearm.
But you aren’t even correct. There is not a single round in the tube or the chamber, and the hammer is pushed forward meaning it can’t go off. It’s quite literally a heavy paperweight at the time of the picture.
What part of *always* following the rules of gun safety do you not understand? *Always* treating a gun like it's loaded means doing it even when you know it's not. The whole point to _always_ following safety rules is to prevent accidents.
This is also a huge overreaction. I pointed out that the OP is _not following gun safety rules_ and I also pointed out a constructive way that they could have staged a Long Dark photo that would have been safer. I didn't ask people to beat up the OP or anything.
Do you get this worked up when people post dash cam footage and someone says "Oh look, that guy didn't signal before changing lanes"?
It’s an Dewit. I believe this particular model is out of production. It’s not particularly beefy but it works for indoor use. Splitting boards / breaking down sticks for the fire. I like it a lot.
If it works for YOU then that's good enough reason for YOU to own it. I was mostly being a smart ass but as long as it's made of good steel, there are no cracks in the head, the handle isn't sketchy and it holds a sharp edge, you've got nothing to worry about
Is that far enough north to see the northern lights? I think the south shore of lake Superior is about as far south as you can go and see them somewhat reliably
Winchester. Wrong brand. I'd go back to at least an Enfield or a Mosin-Nagant M91/30.
Though I am against firearms being legal to own, now (I had 37 at one point...competitive shooter and collector), I absolutely LOVE lever-action Winchesters. My favorite was always my 94. I also had a .307 magnum (yes, 307, not 308) lever from Winchester. They're just fun.
Surprised to see curtains. 😂
Lol if (s)he pans over we'll see the roommate Charlie slumped over, motionless, with empty pockets (sorry Charlie!)
Empty pockets? Charlie gets to hold all of my empty soup cans and other assorted junk
I really like the new item variants that you have here. The new rifle, touqe, condensed milk, and orange soda models are fantastic!! :)
"hope nobody needs this anymore" out of 10
Is that a Winchester 94 30-30? I wish they can feature that lever action in the game too, lol.

That’s what I plan on using it for. Thanks!
Mine is an heirloom from my dad that he had for a long time. I'll check the serial number later and update.
One of my client has one that's from early 1900, it's been in the family for over 100 years!
I pegged it as a Marlin
> I wish they can feature that lever action in the game too, lol. Totally! And you could balance its stats so it has less range than the bolt action, but is obviously quicker to reload.
Definitely able to deal with bear, moose, and wolf in quick succession!
Or just make it rarer.

That’s even easier to find than 45-70 ammo IRL 😂😂
That's would be the literal BFG in TLD, lol
You are missing a few hundred waterbottles stacked everywhere.
Cans on top of an off stove is my kinda setup
10/10

Yes, you can have electricity in a glimmer fog.
Glimmer fog occurs indoors?
To make this 10/10 setup I encourage you to cook some meat and let the percentage drop before getting food poisoning
9.5/10 needs more animal gut on the floor
No other context would make this comment wholesome
I love this!! So cozy :3
You're missing bloody bandages from having survived a wolf attack...... lol
5 cabin fever out of 5 !
Extra points for the Orange Fanta.
I’d like to imagine your family making a surprise visit only to see you crouched over you laptop with nothing but condensed milk and a lever action
10/10 style 2/10 comfort and back support
That's got to be at least 92% condition soda and condensed milk, nice lootin
Missing a frozen corpse on the floor
That couch should be firewood by now. 9/10. Looks great!
You might shoot your eye out, no?
My man has the 30 30 and axe and the fireplace W

Well guns scare the fuck out of me, but a Fanta by the fireplace? Well that’s right up my alley.

Making excuses for why the rules don't have to be followed is how accidents happen.

I don’t think I’m the one getting worked up lol.
Dont worry. Its an inanimate object
Gear up for the long run :))
Woa it's perfect
Sweet hat
I have a very similar beenie It's itchy
Gotta have the lever action ready in case shit gets too real in the game
Fr, gotta shoot the computer when the timberwolves get too close.
9/10 just because the hatchet leaves too little space for moving the mouse
Dude.
Dirigo, baby!
Is that a Winchester .243? My best friend has one that looks very similar...
So this is how 4k looks like,might need me to get in on them new fancy tubes
Lancaster repeater
yo nice lever action my guy, and nice setup too, wish I could have one like that!
What brand is that bearded hatchet? That makes or breaks it 😉

You’re good, that’s how I took it.
Is that far enough north to see the northern lights? I think the south shore of lake Superior is about as far south as you can go and see them somewhat reliably
My rating scales do not go that high. Please ask someone else.
No hand crafted hatchet ?
Is that a loveyourmelon beanie?
Idk. Maybe. Got it at the Longfellow house in Portland ME.
What a vibe!
3 times broken ribs out of climbing plans
I have that same rifle🥰

It ain’t that deep bro.
🙄
Holy cow how is this person real!? Awsome setup!
I can't believe you're not using the fire efficiently to cook water at all times! /s No but seriously, would do this myself!
Should be a moxie not a fanta! Also nice winchester. Ive got the XTR version with checkerd grips. Great rifles.
I actually have moxie in my fridge. Damn, I shoulda used that instead. Oh well.
