The lever action rifle: the 19h Century AR...Chuck Connors is the reason I have a lever-action rifle today. I had no idea you could still watch that show somewhere.

I like this alternate opening for Gunsmoke.
Everyone has one of those days every once in a while.

The 1892 was top eject. so, no ejection port on the side. By the way, he fires more rounds than the 1892 holds. They added another shot sound to make it match the music.
Ejects out the top.
Yup, and don't forget the sawed off version from "The Rebel" as well. I had the cap gun version of that one.As a kid, like many others I owned the Hubley cap gun version of the Rifleman rifle.
Back then it was shows like The Rifleman, Gunsmoke,Have Gun Will Travel, and numerous Saturday afternoon westerns at the local cheap movie theater that kindled my interest in Old West guns.
Yup, I remember firing off a lot of those rolls of red paper caps in a half dozen cap guns.

Not exactly an authentic replica, but we didn't care.

Yup, it was a sawed off shotgun for Johnny, I had the "mare's leg apparently...Now, while I grew up watching older westerns, we're talking about my parents' generation of TV, but IIRC, Steve McQeen had the "Mare's Leg" '92 for "Wanted: Dead or Alive". That's another interesting story. I recall looking it up and seeing Johnny Yuma had a sawed-off shotgun.
