Winchester 94 in 30-30….1948 . Mine is from 41 ..... My first , one and only lever action rifle. I like it My old newspaper customer from 53 years ago…came to my shop with the gun,asking me if I wanted to buy it. He said none of his 7 kids wanted it..Cuz it didn’t have a safety. He was 88 years old…It looks like the gun lived in a safe most of its life…wicked piece !

I am not a lever gun guy and prefer bolts but an 86 in 45-70 would be fun.
I have nothing clever to put here.

My favorite is a fairly beat up Marlin 336 in 35 Rem. My favorite as well. Mine was my dad's, his first deer rifle bought in 1953. There's a lot of history with that rifle. He killed his first buck with it, I killed my first buck with it, my daughter killed her first buck with it and my granddaughter is hoping to kill her first buck with it. .35 ammo is getting real hard to find and folks want insane prices when it is available.
Eh...wot?

All listed and 250-3000 savage.
Don't think I've met a lever gun I didn't like.
