Marlin 336W .30-30 Lever Action Rifle Review

 

With the large selection of modern semi-auto “black” rifles such as the AR-15 and AK-47, the lever action is rarely discussed. Although many would argue there is little reason to consider a lever action in .30-30 Winchester with the availability of low-price semi-auto’s – options are a wonderful thing. As stated in the video there are numerous areas around the country where semi-auto, magazine fed weapons are illegal. The lever action in those areas would be a good option. Besides – there are a lot of uses for firearms than just self-defense.

Growing up it was common to see pickup trucks with rifles mounted in the rear window. More frequently than not at least one of those rifles was a lever action and the other a shotgun. Sometimes called a “truck gun”, the lever action certainly attracts less attention from people than an AK-47.

While there are pro’s and con’s to the design, function, and ergonomics of the lever-action – it is found in thousands of gun safes all across the United States.

I wonder how many deer have been harvested with lever actions?
