Barn? He needs a warehouse/hangar!

Nope. I got one better.... an empty, abandoned Walmart Distribution center

Hey, Joe. You got a 94 Winchester in those lever guns?

fify Paul!

No man, that's a big gap in my lever gun collection. I'd love to have one and a Browning BLR as well. I have 3 Marlin 336s, all in .30-30 and three Savage 99s; one each in .243, .300Savage and .308. I just missed a real good shot at a Marlin 336 in .35Remington. It went cheap and needed some TLC, just like I like 'em. But, I got busy with my Hurricane and forgot to check the auction...

It would take me hours and hours (days?) just to look at all of those models, and I would want to do just that too.
About how many years of model building does that represent Duke?

Thanks Tex! And you are welcome to come anytime and browse through my collection for as long as you like. This is 46 years worth of building; with a slight break of +/- two years right after I moved out.

Well that would certainly be a dream come true to have something like that which I could use to display everything. It would definitely give me a small amount of room to grow. Unfortunately, I won't win the Lotto or inherit anything large enough to afford something like that ever, so I'll just have to stick with this tiny room.

You and me both my friend. I do wish that I had my own hobby room again. Perhaps one day...

Wow. That's a lot of stuff in that room. Cool space though.

Thanks Medic! I like it too.
