My first ever lever gun!!!
« on: September 09, 2012, 12:00:00 PM »
Hard to believe I'm almost 57 years old and never owned a lever gun. But after picking up this Colt 45 I had to have a matching Lever Rifle in 45Colt. I picked up this used one at Cabelas for what I though was a very good price. The little lever gun looks almost new.

Nice pair.  Those Winchester 92 copies are slick little rifles.

I've got one just like that in 44 Mag and it's a GREAT rifle!  I'm sure you'll love it!   ;D
