    Let's see, I have a Winchester 1885 "Low-Wall" (.22Lr) that's got a lever, but it's considered a "falling-block".
    I also have a Winchester .22Lr, a Marlin 1894 .44mag, and a Mossberg 464 .30/30

    I don't think I've ever met a lever gun I didn't like. MANY I couldn't afford, but none I didn't like.

    Wonder what Freud would have to say about that?

    I had a Marlin 336W that was amazing with leverevolution rounds. Man I loved that rifle. If it hadn't been the need for a new ar lower, and lack of funds I'd never have gotten rid of it. I couldn't recommend them more.

    My dad has a Golden Boy that he really likes. I've had a couple of Henrys. They are nice guns for the money, other than I didn't care for the sights. I really prefer the the 39M or 39A, but you can buy 2 Henrys for the price of one of them.

    Where can I buy 2 Henry's for the price of 1 Marlin? I have a .22 and have been looking for a .357.

    This is the only lever I bought new,I like older models but Marlin never built a stainless gun until 2000'.

    Here's just a couple I own. Came to the conclusion a while back that it is just plain healthy to shoot/hunt with a lever gun, seems to calm one down and lower the blood pressure. I just need to find a Savage 99 in 250 Savage {250/3000}.

    Just recently found an older Marlin 39A, my first lever and am hooked. Wonderful to shoot. Refinishing the wood and replacing gnarly screws is my current project.
