Yep, I have a muzzleloader. May just use it from now on during the firearms season. On the other hand, I now have a convenient excuse to buy a new gun. :rolleyes:
Thanks all and keep the ideas coming...I'm laid up for a while so I have nothing better to do than research all these cool guns. Right now I'm intrigued by the 1894C. More later.
I think I'll probably go with a .44 mag or .357 mag. I'd like to start a list of possible guns and, since I know nothing about them I would like your help.
I'm aware of the Handi-Rifle, the Marlin lever gun and the Ruger, which, I believe is a bolt-action. Any other suggestions welcome.
I ended up with a J-Frame. S&W 642. May not be as sexy as some of the others but I like the inherent reliability, no safety and if you have a mis-fire just squeeze the trigger again.
At this point I'm leaning toward the .44 mag. Marlin, Ruger or Handi-Rifle. My muzzleloader is a NEF Huntsman. The H&R/NEF guns are a LOT of bang for the buck IMO. Thanks sll.
