Re: Lever action .410s???
I shoot skeet and have hunted quail and pheasants with my Marlin .410 lever. I personally love mine, so I bought a couple extra to hand down to the kids someday. I have two of the blue/walnut and one each of the stainless/laminate in black and brown. Pretty cool guns and lots of fun, but truly not p...

I like Iowa and will probably never move away. I have a dream of living in Wyoming or Montana, but I would bet that my...

Re: Interesting survival rifle....
Nice Trapper. I've gone to a Henry "Evil Roy" in .22 mag, 16" barrel so it handles like your Trapper, just cheaper. I've got a Marlin TDS. And don't carry it for the same reason.

Forgot to add my .02 on the best and worst. Never liked Hitari, so it gets my vote for the worst. Best is tough, "She wore a yellow ribbon" and "McClintock" are at the top, and then "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence", maybe not in that order.
