Love my Marlin 30-30
Got a red dot on it and I have killed some hogs with it. Let my brother borrow it to kill deer. I want to put a set of open sights back on it. I love the way it carries, tosses up, and shoots.

The state won't let me use a full auto M14

You need an AR.

Didn't y'all have this argument a couple months ago?

Try this Chad!

They're cool as hell. Idk what I'd do with it other than look at it and shoot cans, but I want it.
Posted on 11/29/12 at 12:07 pm to DownshiftAndFloorIt
That's all I would do with it. Maybe pop a few armadillos.

You can't replace the ole time sex appeal of the lever action with any of your other rifles.
2. cowboys had em, cool..
3. yes, i can replace them with multiple guns, sex ain't as important anymore.

Only thing I don't like is how heavy they are. I like the marlin better.

lever action presents something different to a typical modern day collection of rifle instead of ANOTHER bolt action rifle with a different marketed name brand on the outside and split fricking hairs over which one you're going to take to the woods that day.

Exactly where is my big split hairs decisions?

You won't want to carry either one "behind the canal"

encore carries slung upside down alot better than lever with sling.. fact.
Posted on 11/29/12 at 12:25 pm to Ole Geauxt
You can't carry it with the sling. It'll drown

ok chad... my point is, there are better options out there today.. the "brush gun" stuff was bullshite. If you think a lever action is sexy and important to you, this is Amurika, buy it, be proud.
I used to have it, and was proud to have it.. I just don't need a lever action gun anymore that's good up to about 150... other than to hang on the wall to remind me of the old days.. fair enough?
