Like most of us I saw the Ranger when they first came out and said I have to have one. Well I never got one and when I found out a few months ago NAA was doing the Ranger II I couldnt believe it! So I started looking and lurking here and checked every gun shop I could find. I watched some on GB and saw what they went for , as of Monday night I said thats it Im done  they are going for over a grand.
Well the old saying good things come to those who wait worked lol On my lunch break I walked into a shop and there it was next to a few other NAA minis My RangerII number 40 !!!! I told the cjerk I would take it and he said you dont want that one let me get you one that hasnt been opened ..... They had 2 !!!! I may go back today to get the other one, it would be nice to have consecutive serial numbers

The lower gun was my pretend Ranger and actually isnt bad for a 100 year old piece

Welcome joe. Good find on the Ranger and nice looking antique iron.

Very cool, Joe ...  And welcome!  Congrats on the Ranger II.  Let us know how she functions when you get the chance.  Oh, and let us know if you go back and get the sibling ...   :D
So, making guns illegal will take them off the street?
Perfect!  We should probably make heroine and meth illegal, too!

Thanks guys, I have noticed its locked up a couple times when setting hammer down gently it all of a sudden locks cant pull hammer back until you open the gun. I will try shooting a box of shells through and see if maybe just a little stiff and needs to be broke in. How do we go about getting a 22lr cylinder ?  I am very happy with it!!!!!! As far as getting the other one I probably wont lol well my wife said NO her exact words where be thankful you got one !
