Loading gate issues

Hey yall! Just bought a Rossi r95 (marlin 336 clone) and when I flip the rifle upside down, something (some riser or cartridge stop) blocks the loading gate so I can’t push it in. It loads just fine not upside down. I’m left handed so flipping the rifle upside down to load rounds is my go-to method. Rossi unfortunately doesn’t have an email so I’m coming to yall. Thanks!

Looking for 2nd lever gun. Any advice on what to look for next?

My wife for my birthday bought me my first lever, a 10mm Marlin 1894 and I absolutely love it. Took her shooting for the first time last month and now she's wanting her own lever and a pistol. I want to get her one for Christmas. I have an idea on the pistol to get her but looking for ideas for her own lever action. She's only going to be shooting targets with it and I know she wants something bigger than a .22. so looking for options that are good pistol caliber and can mount some sort of optic to. Bonus would be being able to customize it as well. Let me know what I should look for. Looking to keep it under $1500.

Current marlins decent?

I didn't know if the current marlins were still considered freedom group junk, or have they becomes decent again?

With the new NFA guidelines I am looking to pickup a 357 lever gun, I'll probably primarily shoot 38 special out of it, as I want a whisper quiet or as quiet as I can make it with the best suppressor I can get rifle. Definitely want something hearing safe, the quieter the better.

What's the best 357/38 lever gun out right now?

I was considering the Marlin 1894 SBL Stainless / Gray .357 Mag / .38 SPL but didn't know if I should go with a Henry or something else? Chiappa?

Henry Bears leg SBR

Anyone on here SBR’d a Henry bears leg? Specifically with the wood furniture set for the x models? Would love to see some builds and know how hard it was to do, thanks!

Best first lever gun? Rossi?

I've heard that Rossi is rough, Henry is ok, and Marlin is smooth as glass. I have only shot a Mossberg once or twice and fell in love, but that was so long ago I have no idea what the action was like.

Is there a way to polish or wear in the action to bearlin smooth, or is the actual mechanics not allow it to work well?

Is the price worth it for the Henry? Has anyone used the long ranger or equivalent and is it worth it?

Sorry, forgot context. I'm looking for a cheap fun gun, but something that is actually capable. I want to be able to hunt at least a blacktail or hog with it. Not a .22. But also have some fun with it without needing to spend $3 a shot like 7mm is nowadays.

S&W 1854 45 Colt Direction thread suppressor mounting options?

Hello, I’m new to @LeverGund and I just picked up a S&W 1854 in 45 colt to match my Ruger Bisley Vaquero in the same caliber. The thread pitch from what I’ve found for this rifle is 11/16x24, I’m wanting to add a new 45 or 46 cal suppressor to the rifle and I’m wondering if anyone here has found a Silencer that direct threads onto this or did you need to get an adapter for the 11/16x24 to let’s say 5/8x24 or 1/2x28. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated thank you in advance.

Any use Marlins muzzle brake?

I am looking to add a muzzle brake to my 1895 SBL 45-70 and a lot of the ones I see are a radial brake or use a nut or some type of adapter that I am not really into. I found the one that Marlin makes and it uses a crush washer and has top and side ports so it should work pretty good at reducing recoil and muzzle rise. Also at $90 is a decent price for polished stainless to match the finish. Wondering if anyone has used one and how they like it.

And yes I would love a suppressor but we can't get nice things here...

Optic recommendations

New Henry H9 explorer just finished up with most of the furniture (no sling or butt cuff) was wondering about good optics for these? I can hit with the iron sights about 250yds out but want to hit more consistently. Would love holo and a magnifier if y'all know any good ones. Thank you!

Value of a Winchester 1894 in 25-35?

Hey y’all,

I’ve got an opportunity to pickup a Winchester 1894 in 25-35. It was produced around 1910, has a 20” octagonal barrel (might be a half octagonal barrel, can’t tell for sure from the seller’s pics), and is a takedown model. I’d saying bluing is in the 40%-60% range.

I’ve tried to find some comps on gunbroker but I haven’t been able to find any takedowns in 25-35. Most of the sales I’ve found have been around the $800-$1000 range, but any other opinions on value would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
