I own a few shotguns and pistols and couple bolt action rifles.
Think Id like to buy an old reliable 30-30.

I bought a cheap one at Wal-marks a few years ago. It is my "let it ride on the 4wheeler" rifle and also, my drag through a thicket gun. It is pretty banged up, but accurate enough.

But I dont' even know what make it is.

The only lever gun I ever saw in Wal Mart was a Marlin.

Winchester model 94. My first rifle. Now I use it to carry when tracking or scouting.

I prefer Marlin but many prefer the Winchester guns...

It is cheap and it is ugly, but it goes bang.

I was surprised when I gouged the stock that it was actually made of some sort of wood.

A twenty year old Marlin from a pawn shop. It is twice the gun a new Marlin is.

The Winchester 94 is THE classic .30-30 lever action.

Does it shoot two bullets at the same time? That makes it an automatic rifle.

I heard cheesy actually designed the original 336. Something about him wanting people to have a fair chance against him in a fight.
