So I've been thinking of picking up a lever-action rifle in a handgun caliber, maybe .357, any suggestions?
Marlin your best bet these days probably, Winchester no longer makes them which makes them harder to find and $$$. I saw some in my travels recently though, give me an idea on what you want and price range.
How about a .22lr lever gun? I want the Henry Golden Boy, I gave away my youth model, the Golden Boy is beautiful and has a nice octagonal barrel.
I have a Winchester 94 in .357mag, there is a pic of it on TAN. I also have a Rossi lever gun in .44mag with the large lever loop.
