What's your favorite lever action gun?

[Pick187]

I bought my boy his first rifle, a henry 22. I have owned a few lever actions and always enjoyed them. This little 22 is now my favorite gun to shoot. What a pleasure to go out and throw some lead down range.

I told my son he could never sell the gun or put a scope on it.

Forgot to add.....my next gun will probably be a lever action in 357.

I've always liked Marlin 336/1985 and even 1894 rifles and carbines.

Currently I have a 336C 35 Rem. with XS Ghost Ring Sights. My son has a little 336Y (12.75" stock, 16.25" barrel). Well, I should say, he'll be getting a 336Y. His current 336Y is at Remington's Ilion plant. They're giving him a new one. It'll be a few weeks though because of the flooding down in the Mohawk Valley.

They're both awesome guns though.

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?

Marlin made that configuration at one time but I think has stopped.

Mine would have to be my Marlin 336 in 35 Remington.

I have a friend with two Marlin .35's from the early & mid-eighty's. Sunday I watch him shoot a 1/2" group @ 100 yds. (3 shots with reloads with the Hornady bullet. It wasn't a fluke. The 2 shots before he adjusted the scope were touching. He said the Hornady factory loads shoot poorly. He said the other Marlin shoots almost as well.

1873 Winchester.

I want one of these or similar Winchester after reading American Gun.

Pre-64 Winchester 94s in .30-30 are at the top of my lists.
