The first rifle I bought was a Marlin 1894C .357 magnum. A sweet little shooter. I know of at least 3 people who went out and bought one just like it after they tried mine.

i would have me one of those IF they made one with a pistol grips stock like the 1895 and the rounded lever like the 1895

I might just buy another one if they did that.

I LOVE the Henry .22 It is a lot of fun to shoot and is pretty darn accurate.

Piece of cake to take down for clean up too.

Good luck with the Taurus. they don't make them anymore.

I tried to buy one earlier this week. I have a bid on Gun Broker for another pumper, ( so don't go cutting me down there, LOL)

i am high bidder with about 28 hours to go, and I am not bidding any more of someone out bids me.

I am pretty sure that a lever and stock from a different action is a "doable" thing.

Have turned a pistol grip 39A in to a "mountie" version. I also know that the action on my 1895 is very, very similar to the 336. Check Paco Kelly or Marlin forum.

just wanted to let you guys know that i did some poking around on the marlin forums and they did make a pistol grip verison of the .44mag 1894 in 2004 for a short period. might have made the .357mag not sure, but if you check pawn shops and gun shops, they might have one.

Lever guns are the best. Mines a Marlin 336, I can't show it to you for 30 days and 100 post but it's my favorite rifle.

I might have to come around more often. Just read this entire thread. Glad to see there are lever lovers in TN. I've got 8 in my safe and don't favor one over any of the others.

"Very" old Winchester 1892 in .38-40 given to my brother and I from an elderly neighbor when we were both teenagers - this wonderful gentleman (RIP) also provided us with a Winchester Model 12 20 gauge!

I also possess Marlins in both 30-30 and .44 mag.

The only rifles I've ever had are leverguns. I don't know if it's the kid in me or what, but the classic lines just look better than any bolt action rifle. I've got two Marlins (30-30 and a 22 Mountie) and one Winchester 94.

Any other leverguns lovers in TN?

Post some pics!!!!

Always been a big fan of "The Rifleman" TV series starring Chuck Connors and Johnny Crawford. Whenever I think about lever actions guns I think of his. The Rifleman's Rife was a unique animal because of the over sized lever and the screw placed to "auto fire" the rifle when the action was cycled.

I've got a Winchester 94... 1986 version. Thought about putting the oversized lever on it. Cost is about $100 for it. But, haven't gone there yet. Love mine. (sorry no pic at the moment.)

I really dig a good lever gun. As a matter of fact one of my go to tactical guns is a Marlin 1895 in .450 Marlin.

I have my mom's(rip)336c in 35 Rem. I would like to get one in .357 or 45 Colt sometime in the future.

I have leveritius in a bad way. Marlin 1895 ss 45-70, Marlin 336cs 35rem, Interarms M92 45lc, Puma M92 44mag. Too much fun.

I have always thought a lever gun would be a good tactical rifle.

I saw a write up in guns and ammo about the 45/70,the preformance was something else.

I have a SS Marlin 45/70.
