    Hate to admit it, but an early Savage 99 in a classic caliber. Probably 300 Savage or 250/3000. High tech back in the day.

    They are stupidly expensive now, wished I had bought one when they were unknown/unappreciated.

    Also always liked the BLR in .308.

    Would not mind a cowboy lever action repro in common caliber with a revolver. Either .41 Mag or .45 Long Colt. (But I'm just weird that way )

    I have wanted a lever gun in 357 for years. Trying to find the best one for me has been my hold up.

    The picture doesn't do the wood on either rifle justice.
    Nice pair!

    I would love to have a stainless lever gun in .44 mag with a 16 inch barel to pair with my S&W 629. I do not own a lever gun and haven't found the mfg of the above spec. Any recommendations?

    I have heard they put together some good lever actions, but have no personal experience.

    You can teach ANYONE to shoot with one of those.

    Nothing puts a smile on my face more than running a handful of rounds through mine. Just a fun rifle to shoot.

    Can't agree more. I managed to talk Mr. Smith out of a Marlin Guide gun from his personal collection while AC was picking up a 336. Both incredible lever guns. Smoothest action I've felt on any lever gun. The man has skills.

    I was hope you would get a chance to have that exact visit. I'm glad to read you both got a chance to wander by his shop.
