[QUOTE="Rum River, post: 2162266, member: 16869"] For fifteen years now my wife and I have hosted an annual deer rifle sight in for the descendants of the original 1930's deer camp, plus some very close friends who are within the 'inner circle'. Lot of fun and we're blessed with shooters that are safety minded. One family had a close call - two outwardly identical Marlin levers, but one's a .30-30 and the other a .32 Winchester Special. The ammo mixup was caught at the last possible moment, thank goodness. From that point on the bluing on those rifles was at risk from all the handling to check the caliber. I got their permission to take the end of a .32 Winchester case and inlet/epoxy it into the pistol grip of that rifle. After that it was easier to keep things straight. [/QUOTE]
