I think its Beautiful 🙌

I picked up one of these last night in 357 Magnum. Wondering if anyone is running optics on their lever guns. I never have, but I guess I’m not opposed to it. This rifle has a really nice Picatinny rail, so it would lend itself nicely to having an optic. Has anyone put an optic on their stealth hunter? For the record, this picture is a stock photo from the Internet. This is not actually my rifle, but mine looks just like it.

My Henry Big Boy Steel in 41 magnum. Got it to match the 41 magnum revolver my grandfather left me.

Decided to give the scout scope a try on the sbl

First lever gun build. Initial stages will be getting an Acro and ranger point precision stock and a Can

Pretty simple, I want to pick up a closed emitter dot in green or gold for plinking. It’ll live on my Henry 22lr, maybe spend some time on a 10/22, and won’t ever see anything higher than 357 if I ever pick up another rifle someday.

I was looking at the Holosun eps full size but see that the Osight se is just a bit smaller for around $100 less (give or take). Osight seems like it has overcome a lot of the initial skepticism at this point, so I’m wondering if the extra window size and Holosun brand name is worth the additional money?

Sounds good. Impacts at 50 yards into dirt. Hearing safe for sure, would sound better with a more optimized can.

Hello friends, I own a Pietro Beretta shotgun inherited from my grandfather; I am sharing the inscriptions on it with you, point by point. -Gardone V. T. -Veritable monobloc -Fucile Rinporzato Speciale Brevettato -psf -finito -XIX

I would appreciate it if anyone with information regarding the history, value, etc., of the weapon—as well as how to clean it—could help out.

Hey!

Just fired my henry supreme, incredible! I wasn't wearing gloves and I noticed the back of my fingers starting to hurt where I push the lever loop forward.

Any recs on how to make this more comfortable?

Thanks for any responses!

For context I’m a FFL and snagged this, they rarely come available to me. I really want to throw a can on it.

1917 Winchester 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine in 32 WCF / 32-20

1919 Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless in 32 ACP

Stopped at the local shop, and my wife was immediately smitten with this Uberti, especially since it’s chambered in 357/38, (she loves old smith 38 revolvers). It is very pretty.

The fit and finish are impressive.

Got a 1894 Marlin 44 mag recently and I need to pick some deer hunting ammo. I know all of these can work for deer but I’m interested in seeing what people prefer to use, hollow point or soft point? I am not looking to buy new ammo, I want to use these that I have just looking for options about them.

Update: the comments seem evenly split between the Winchester jacketed soft point and the Hornady XTP, a lot people are also recommending the Hornady leverevolution. I am going to try and go shoot some of each this week and see what my gun likes better. Thanks to all the comments and advise!

An awesome gift I received for helping/saving my dad big time on an unfortunate situation/business deal, and 28th bday… he didn’t know what this gun was, said “it’s a solid old lever action!”. 336-A DL .32 Special! With JM stamp & bullseye 100% intact. The most unfortunate part is the last pic! Im alright with it though, I will put an optic on it and use it. This is my first ever lever action & first gun this old! Optic/mount suggestions would be helpful! Let me know what you guys think

I got a Vortex Venom 1-6 for my 336 Marlin and found a better deal on the scope pre mounted on the Vortex Sport Cantilever. I'm wondering if I can get away using it as is or if I should buy standard/low profile rings. This is my first scope, only used irons or dots before so a bit clueless.

I was wanting to order a BLR in .243 and both dealers in town could not find one.

I found one (the last one) in the Scheels system, and have it on order.

I also ordered the Vortex Viper HD in 2-10 x42 to pair with it. It has a 30mm tube.

Now I need to order scope mounts. Since I have neither rifle or scope in hand, just curious if anyone has one of these and what works?

Thanks!

Inspired by another post that claimed to be a budget build but actually cost like $6k. Here is a real budget build for all my fellow poor friends who want a tactical lever action without breaking the bank!

Build list

1. Citadel Levtac in 357. $800 Canadian bucks ($500 USD)

Simple Rossi made 92 clone. This one comes with a great aluminum mlock handguard from factory as well as a Rail. Simple plastic stock, feels a bit hollow, I stuffed mine with plastic scrap that made it feel much much better for zero dollars extra. Honestly this is all you need to have a tactical lever action. You can stop here and be great.

1. Leather buttcuff off amazon, Wayne Dog brand. $40 Canadian ($25 USD)
   

A cheap leather buttcuff, isn't necessary butt it feels nicer than plastic and does hold extra rounds. Lots of options here, you can get one with a riser, but I usually shoot irons, and if I have a red dot, it's usually even lower than the one currently on it. Because of that, I just have a non riser one.

1. Red Dot, a $80 Canadian (50 USD) Romeo 5 clone on a quick attach Rail piece.

Not needed but a dot certainly adds to the tactical space cowboy feel. This one is a Chinese knock off that alternates between this and my CZ 600 trail in 7.62 x39. Has held up to the recoil easily despite its cheap price. Replace with a better Dot if you like, or skip the dot and just shoot with the lovely peep sight!

1. Random amazon paracord sling, cost maybe $20 CAD ($12 USD)

Again totally not needed, just something to help carry it in the woods.

1. Diy paracord wrap. Free if you have some scrap paracord around the house. Looks better if you don't go all the way around like I did. Learn from my mistakes and do better. It is pretty comfy though....

And that's all! For a cheap price, you too can join the ranks of space cowboys!

This gun was passed down to me from my grandpa and I intend to pass it down to my kids, I added the wrap and the time accurate scope, I looked up the serial number and the gun was produced in 1970 when my grandpa was 16 and was his first gun. The scope is a 1970s weaver K4 4x that I got off of eBay. Super happy with how it turned out and I can’t wait for deer season to come around!

Shooting at a backstop hard to see in video. Going to try out some .357 230gr soon. Man I'm flying through ammo on this thing. Been pretty sick but still going in and out to lob some rounds and then go back inside lol.

Can anyone suggest a rifle that reliably cycles 44 special cartridges?

I have a Winchester 94ae 44 Mag that was manufactured in the 1990's. I love the rifle and the fact it was made in the good ole USofA. I may have to sell it to get a carbine that reliably feeds 44 spl.

I reload. I utilize published data to create the lowest velocity 44 Mag I can find. I've had rotator cuff surgery and even these loads leave my shoulder sore for a few days.

I have loaded rounds with a charge that is between published data for 44 spl and 44 mag. I can shoot 50 rounds and not feel a thing. However, I've learned about the dangers of flashover and no longer make those loads 😕

I have a Marlin 1894 in 357 , and adore it. Currently has a vortex 3x9 but I'm tempted to put an offset red dot to zero for 38 special. Has anyone done this and if so mind posting pictures and experience?
