I would drop the idea, if I were you, unless you are going to propose that only the elite will be allowed to carry them. The 1911A1 is a real pistolero's handgun, and the average cop is not a pistolero . I carried one in the Navy, and the standard protocol is hammer down on an empty chamber. You wil...

Ya know, I get on gun boards to read about guns, and I really hate it when I get embroiled in political discussions which are not about guns. Next time I do it, someone please slap me down!

Re: WW Greener , not a REAL lever gun?
These old guns started life as rifles dating back to the ZULU wars. I read somewhere that production stopped somewhere in the mid 1880's a bit before the Brits went to the enfield bolt guns. Indeed.

Good thing because I didnt want to have to stop carrying my SMLE. Why would Barnes not making a bullet stop you from carrying your SMLE? (is it a No.1 or a No. 4?...

Falling blocks
Why do some people consider falling block actions, or in the case of the Peabody or Martini, tilting blocks, lever actions? In my mind, even though they use a short lever to lower the block, they are not really lever actions in the sense of a Winchester 92, a BLR, or a Marlin 336. Falling/tilting bl...
