Mine is just the typical rimfire lever action in blue. I can say that over 50 years of shooting, it has been the most accurate rimfire I have ever owned. Mine was not real accurate to start, carefull examination showed a poor crown job, rather than returning it and having gunsmithing skills, I fixed it myself. Also some polishing on the feed ramp and it became a superb shooter. With my 2-7x32 scope and decent ammo it is easy sub inch at 50 yards, if I really get serious on a good day with good ammo, I have done many 1/2" at 50. Very much a fun rifle to shoot !!

I swear, I haven't slept well waiting for this (and getting ammo) looking fwd to shooting it at the range (one indoor ugh other outdoor) and will take it and a "few" others year end to my buddys cabin - 10+ acres!!! Maybe 60 mile drive - I've wanted a lever action like this forever!!! :)

Just picked her up! At bass pro shops God I love that store! I should have my 44 special by tomorrow or the next day. It’s taking longer to get it then it did the 44 magnum.

Nothing like getting a new toy, no matter how old you get!

I did another thing SRM Arms SRM-1216 Semi Auto 18.5" barrel. 12 gauge holds 16 3" mag loads. I bit pricy but is there a better home defense weapon?
Just googled it.....That would be the ultimate in home defense/close quarters for sure.

Nice!! That’ll do the job, hope you never need it. In the past I’ve considered a shotgun specifically designed for home defense. Keltec has one that caught my eye. Was about 800$. Probably would have snagged one if I was into some sort of three gun style competition and if crime was a tangible issue here. Just couldn’t justify the cost for something I’d never use, come to think of it I have my share of safe queens already😁

I know will probably never use it for it's intended purpose but probably will not lose any money on it.
