What makes it "rare"? Model 94s are pretty common, even an old one with
steel but plate and steel sling swivel can be had for a couple of
hundred bucks. *Did Chuck Conners use it in "Rifle Man"?

Of the four that Connors used, one was custom and three were made for
him with changes to the trigger gaurd and lever action. I'm going to
have one of his guns in about 6 weeks. I've been friends with his
agent for about 17 years.

I would never keep a pistol in the house.

One is my pet python, his name is, "Colt". *And the other is Colt Mark

I used to be a cooler at the Polk. I had to remove some guys that
would use you for chum. I never needed a gun then and guns are for
police and pussies. Why on Earth would I ever need a pistol? Nothing
sadder than some faggo pretending he's a man with his pistol.

Oh oh, the rifle that Chuck Conners used was in fact an model 1892, I
think some is pulling your leg. Save your money.

Did you know that Chuck didn't even know how to load the thing? It was
always done for him by the armorer.

Marty, I met Connors in 1988, shortly before he did his BK ad and his
last series of appearances. He knew how to shoot and owned an
impressive gun collection. My father, who was a animal trainer and
handler for film, also knew him. I've heard the dopey story that he
couldn't load the gun and it's just that; a story. Part of it is
actually based on ignorance like yours as actors were not permitted
(and still aren't) to load the guns ever. Winchester and several other
gunmakers made guns for him for the show. Some were used for riding,
others for stunts. He even had a simple carved/wood gun for some
scenes. Most of his guns were sold at a private auction, but several
were kept, including the model 34's he used for firing during some
scenes. IN fact there were more than three models of guns used.
As usual, Marty, you have no clue. I knew the guy as did my father, so
please spare me your google research. The gun I'm buying was on his
wall and I saw it there myself. I could sell it for 5 times what I'm
paying in a heart-beat, just like I recently sold a Winchester
Flatside 1866 for 18.5K (tripling my money in two months). BTW, Dan
Welby taught Connors to shoot. Don't bother googling him because
that's his real name. Maybe you can impress me and tell us what his
famous stage name was as he was one of the world's finest shots and
renowned gun experts.
Now go take a deep deep breath and wait for a clue to come over you,
Marty. What a windbag you remain.

My goodness Bob but you do get your knickers in a knot when you're
caught telling a porkie don't you?

Chuck Connor's rifle was a 44-40. The 30-30 wasn't even invented back then!

Bwaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa!!!!!

http://www.psacard.com/articles/arti...d=314&type= 1

The Winchester 37 1940 costs less than any of my shotguns!

http://www.gunrunnerauctions.com/lis...mnum=822283712

But yet the 16 ga is only worth $75-$150! Over one million produced!

Good lord!

Yup, you can always tell when it's time to stop believing him. His
believability quotient is inversely proportional to his puerile insults.

Cheers
Marty, (who doesn't need Google to know one Winchester from another).
