im not so sure about that , I sure would like to try one out. any idea on the cost?
I like the features forward and above the loading gate. That stock is just awful though. I threw up in my mouth a little....
Not really would have to look it up I guess......I would not be intrested.
For some reason that thing reminds me of the "Gunslinger" in the Stephen King novels.
So did that series ever end?...got tired of waiting 5 years per episode......Quote:

You big babies. Function does not matter if you're walking cool. Do I have to tell you everything?
Take on the Mossberg Chainsaw:

hey, lol, GET SOME!!
Isn't that shotty retrofitted with a weedeater handle?
I don't think I would be interested
I think lever guns have a place in alot of areas, but their tactical ability was squandered over a century ago when the semi-autos came about. Just because you have an adjustable buttstock and the ability to mount everything including a can opener doesn't make it tactical or practical either.
Just my $.02, can I get a receipt?
The good thing about that abomination is that it will introduce younger folks to lever guns which may lead them to trying traditional lever guns. Actually that thing would make a good truck gun for me. It's ugly already so I wouldn't feel bad to beat it up........if I got it cheap.
Back in the olden days a fellow named Jeff Cooper used to run a tatical rifle course at Gunsite Raven. Just to prove his tatics were valid, at the end of the course he would split the class and give half leverguns and let half use their black rifles. Guess who normally won? Knowing how to operate is more important that what you operate with.Quote:

The plastic parts on a lever gun just do not look right to me, but to the generation that has grown up looking at plastic rifles and adjustable tube stocks it is probably acceptable.
You know, I do kinda agree with this statement.....have had some younger guys show up at the range, shooting in-line muzzle-loaders, complete with scopes and all sorts of add ones.Quote:

Who would have thought that a couple of years later they would show up at rendezvous with full regalia.
Things tend to run in trends, so only time will tell.
Maybe a "tact cool" lever gun will get think about the old days........
it appeals to me in a perverse sorta way..........:blush:
however.........that picatinny forend is gunna chew up your left hand.........and there is no way you'd slip that thing into a leather scabbard...... (the horse would likely throw up !!)
a better take for Mossberg woud have been to come out with a pump action rifle in this 'tacti- cool' style......... with 10 round detachable mags and less picatinny crap............now I'd buy THAT !!
I would not have even shot Osama ben laden with that thing, not even! I like a lever gun. And a nice lever with a forward mounted scope ("scout scope" per Cooper) is a neat rig. But that thing? You can't even use it for a 'mater stake. They'd refuse to come up out of the ground!
I think this is a cool lever:

O.K. How about this one.....LOL

Tres, I do like that lever you posted. Updated and usefull without destroy basic practicallity.
Hunter, is that a war capture from Afghanistan!?!?!?!
No, just a tact cool Daisy.....LOL..... But they can build you anything you want from old freighter hulls....pretty big cottage industry I understand...Per NatGoQuote:

adjustable buttstock on a lever action is nice though because not everyone is the same size, that lever doesnt have a pictinny rail , part of the problem , I laugh when you AR guys talk about how this is an obomination and yet , throwing all the crap on an AR is ok? I have a folding stock on my AK (came off of a shotgun ) , the forend also came off a shotgun as well as the AR grip I modded on it , had to mod them on there , it suits me just fine , I dont need snipers scope(nor do I have an extra grand lying around to buy it) and I dont need foregrips and all that yuppie stuff , because lets face it , the AK has a purpose , for clearing rooms out , its not the most accurate shooter but it will kill its target! Thats its purpose , I have a Jennings .25 acp ,ugly critter , probably only good for a few shots at best (just enough time to pull out my .40 sw or my .45 acp) , it has a job , just as this gun will have a job , I love lever actions ,I wont be getting this one anytime soon (not at 500 bucks) ,but I am willing to shell out 300 for a Rossi Ranch Hand in .45lc , now thats a great camp gun right there! Drop the price on this Lever and Ill get one of them too!
Tresmon, is that a wild west guns 45-70? Me want.
Jarhead, I have a small flashlight and a Vertical foregrip on my AR. That's all. Someone had to talk me into the flashlight , but holy smokes, you know how nice it is to spotlight the yard with an aimed rifle? You feel like Leonidas.
Still haven't quite figured out if a vertical foregrip is useful or not, but they shoot differant now.
"Jarhead" is a term of endearment, don't get all mad.
Hey an old Red Ryder !! Had one a thim in Noo Zeelund........when I wore a mere BOY !! :) useta shoot the pegs off the neighbours clothesline, and starlings and sparrers and stray cats......and me little sister :)Quote:

I always thought the SPAS (pronounced SPAZ) was interestingly named.

I do have to admit that a night vision capability, on my BYB pellet rifle, has always interested me....for those late nite bunny hunts.....laser will lite up the eyes, so you're not shooting at a clump of leaves in the dark......I can see where I could get carried away for this special op's rifle.
Hunter, ever think about a visible laser illuminator? Doesn't scare game, not NEAR the advertisement to the whole world that white light is. And it's a laser so there's only light at the lens of the laser and on the backdrop. You wont have a bright beam streaking from the rifle all the way to the target
It's kinda wanna-be night vision, that's REALLY effective...

I think that is the ugliest firearm I have ever seen! Looks like it's mother was raped by an M-16.
Will have to look in to one of those.....pretty cool.Quote:

i have to agree that levergun is just wrong, i have a few puma 1892's and i cant see it myself
Hey y'all, I wouldn't be so quick to bad-mouth a lever gun. As the old Russian proverb tells us, "BETTER is the enemy of GOOD-ENOUGH."
In the proper hands (all of 'em young) I have witnessed both a '66 and a '73 Winchester (souped-up reproductions, both of 'em) keep pace with a semi-auto AR-15. Heck, as old and decrepit as I am, I can get my unaltered 1860 Henry and 1866 Winchester reproductions up to 50-60 rounds per minute. ['Course, the magazines only hold 10-15 rounds...]
By the way, did I mention that I'm into Cowboy Action Shooting? Of course, when I do it, its more like Indian Action Shooting. There are a surprising number of us, and we all ascribe to the motto, "Our heroes have always killed cowboys..." :laugh: :laugh:
I don't think people were objecting to lever guns in general, but rather the one shown in the OP in particular.
Yup, that one's uglier than homemade sin. Just didn't want folks to throw out the baby with the bathwater (so to speak)...Quote:
