r/LeverGuns

Looking at buying this gun as a multipurpose rifle. Primary use will be Whitetail hunting, range toy, and a little bit of home defense.

Not sure what optic to run, been looking at red dots like the vortex SPARC or the Romeo5 but I'm not sure if a LVPO is a better choice.

Would appreciate any opinions.​

Has anyone been able to find any of the new Marlin 336 30-30 recently? I have been looking to get one for sometime now but they’re impossible to find in Canada it seems. Are they more readily available in the US?

Almost seems like Marlin is just not producing them for whatever reason. Most of the other lever guns they make I can find here.

Hi. Does anyone have any experience with the Derya RAN Ironwolf ? Look pretty bad ass and I do want to get a 44 Magnum lever action. Just wondering

Hey guys,

I’m looking to buy a lever-action in .44 Magnum and I’m currently hesitating between the Marlin 1894 Dark Series and the S&W 1854 Stealth Hunter.

I know these are probably not the most traditional-looking lever guns, but that’s actually what I like about them.

I really like the modern/futuristic aesthetic, which is why I’m specifically looking at these two models.

My goal is to buy something that I can keep for decades and potentially pass down to my children, so long-term reliability, durability and build quality are very important to me.

If you had to choose between these two, which one would you go for, and why?

I’d especially love to hear from people who have actually owned or shot both.

Thanks a lot for your help !

I bought a new gun a couple days ago from guns.com. It was a lever action. I was about to get a 16.5" barrel, when I saw they had an 18 inch barrel for $150 cheaper. Made a lot of sense.

As it turns out, it was listed wrong. It's a 20 inch barrel, which I'm not wanting. I already made the order, and of course, they don't have live customer service, which is dumb af. Their phone line and all over their website says that you cannot cancel orders. I've also heard there's a 15% restocking fee, but it's not my fault that they advertised a gun that doesn't even exist. What do I do? I sent them an email, but I've received no response. I've never ran into a situation where I've had to cancel and order on a gun or request a refund... Thanks for any advice.

Hi lomg time listener second time caller, looking for a scope for my rosi r92 chambered in 45 colt. I have the rail mount but wondering if offset scope is better or going the scout scope route since its top eject. Opinions, thoughts, comment, smart ass remarks welcome

I recently purchased a model 94 thats in 32 win spl. I am wanting to turn it into a 30-30 so that its more affordable to shoot and i can go into a gun store and just purchase the ammo in person instead of online. What all needs to be changed like can i get a 30-30 barrel and have a gunsmith change it or do i need to change out a bunch of parts its a original 1958 gun according to the marks and serial number
