Thanks Bucksweet. Yes there are now a couple comapnies making replicas and LSI have one under the Puma name I believe. The guns are really starting to make a come back and companies are jumping on a chance to make replicas and make some money. Just make sure you research now as some oare really "cheap" knockoffs.

Hi Don, welcome to the John Wayne Messageboard.
The type of gun you are probably looking at is a Winchester Model 94 32-40 with the 13" loop. The models made from about 1960 till early this year(machine built) are not as good of quality or as highly sought after then the pre 1960 models(hand built). So if you want one of those you will surely pay a good amount of cash for one. Here is a link to a commemoritive edition of the John Wayne rifle to give you a idea what is looks like and what they are going for. John Wayne 32-40 Rifle I would think you could find a model 94 allot cheaper then this one. Try checking your local gun dealers.
One thing to note above, I did say early this year when I was talking about the "machined" versions, Winchester is no longer in buisness and the rifles are now a thing od the past, so if you are looking for one, buy now as they more then likely will not be getting any cheaper. Good luck and let us know what you find. And come back to the board once in awhile, we have a great group of people who enjoy ytalking about John Wayne.
