I’m Jon and I’m a rifleholic. If there’s a 12 step program, I don’t want to know about it. Happy Easter. Happy Passover.

Jon, the twelve step program is to buy one a month.

Peace be with you, and Happy Easter.

This is but a portion…,,
As for the ballards, I believe these are all older pre Marlin, but might be “newer” marlin barrels in there.
I think I’ve given up on the excuses that it will be good for the estate. No one will know what any of it is!  Grin

Bob, 
I’m envious of that action! I have a CC Johnson R barrel I’d love to put on one like that.

Jon,

You're obvisously at the overload mark.  Ship everything to me and start over.

Happy Easter,

Lyle

The only problem I see is Too Many Projects and Not Enough Time.
I'm betting on Heaven having a Small Shop where we can gather and after Singing Praises we can putter around.
Happy Easter

Hmmm, haven't thought about new pistons for the Stang. Hope those spark plugs are all Autolites!

Just remember the one a month is a quota, not a limit.  One just keeps the blues away.

I can start you on a road to recovery by removing this ‘Hiwall’ fixation Bob. First step is to send it to me, I will then send photos of it to you, gradually tapering off the photos…
