View Full Version : have to have hand not in firiing grip to thumb
back a lever's hammer, dummies. So it DOES slow down the first shot, because you DO have to reposition your hand, and no, you CAN'T flow all that into the raising of the rifle to the shoulder. You can come close, after a lot of pointless practice (maybe) but you'll never match the .90 second time for the AR to react, raise, and hit a torso at 25 yds, from low ready. You can practice until you're blue in the face, but it's like running a 3 minute mile. it'll never be done by a human being.

How many times do we have to tell you that it can be done because I, Magnum, Garand and others can do it -- ON DEMAND. Just because your wrists and hands are unable to do it doesn't mean it can't be done. Heck I can swing cock my Model 92 just like John Wayne; note I didn't say full circle cock but swing cock.
Get a grip. There are plenty of people more knowledgable than you and I combined. Accept our help and we will bring you back to reality.

no, you can't. Not in the time I said. In fact, you can't even close to my AR time with an AR. :-) You can lie about it all you want, but you've never had it on a timer, much less made that sort of time. that's WHY we have timers, because lots of things SEEM like they are "fast", but in reality, they are not.
Ahhh, the old timer defense. You are totally unaware of the way the human body works in raising a rifle to shoulder firing position. I guess that if you state your fantasys as facts enough times they become facts in your own mind.
Whatever.

Gunkid, are you slow or can't you read what I have posted before??
I posted this here 06-16-2004
"Last time I shot a man on man stage at a Cowboy action match at 5 targets between 15-50 yds with a Marlin M1894S, starting with an empty chamber and the rifle at waist level, it took me 6.83 seconds to hit targets 1 to 5. While all firearms should be used within their limitations, an armed hostile should never be discounted."
By the way rika, I didn't realize that you had a Winchester M92, what caliber is it in?
Its a 38-40 saddle ring carbine, Garand.

I have a .38-40 Winchester Model 92 Takedown model. It belonged to my grandfather,
We have enough people to start a 38-40 LA club. :nyah:
RIKA :)
show shoot a video of it, little girl. I'll figure that you are too inept to alter the footage, so the times will be real. Be sure to have the audio on, so we can hear the start beep of the timer, and have the timer in the near foreground, so we can see your wondrous speed with the lever action. :-) What a laugh.

I don't have the equipment for a video. You would call me a liar on anything I might show if I could so whats the point. You're getting tiresome JD. Come up with something new or stfu.

LOL, then you've never fired one.
The position of the thumb is all that changes, the rest of the fingers are as ready as ever to fire, and one can, in fact, do it in one smooth sweep to the shoulder.

Nonsense, your .44mag is nothing more than .44 Russian "Long" :dgrin: and besides it's a HELL of a lot more practical than my Henry..while it has style points out the butt, if i'd have known how bloody heavy it was, i'd have gone with omething else..and lets not get into the cost of .44WCF..

We officially redefine that 44 mag to be a 38-40 on steroids. There! Now you're in.
And that 44-40, its redefined so you're in too KDP.
Hell, everything is redefined so if its a LA, then everybody is in.

Not the best picture as I rushed it, but here's my carbine in 38-40
And my thumb can reach the hammer without any repositioning of my hand. There's no changing of the grip as the rifle is brought up to ready....
:devil:

Small letter andy has obviously NEVER handled a Winchester 94! Probably not old enough to remember John Wayne movies or "The Rifleman" or "Wanted, Dead or Alive". Nyuk! Any good Win 94 can be cocked on your shoulder and thumb cocked with ease.

can you show us the same as your asking Rika to do. Hell no you can't, all anyone ever hears from you is to prove what they say, I think everyone would ask the same from you. OK you can't handle a firearm "by law" so show a video of your fantastic martial arts skills, gunsmithing skills, hell anything to prove your half as good as you continually say you are. Ya know, John nobody would question your outlandish claims if you didn't claim so much bull**** and put down those who claim otherwise. I claim no special talents other than to know bull**** when I smell it, so put up or shut up, prove even one of your claims on video or some other undisputable type of media.
