Lemme know if memes aren’t alright, I see that both the armed queers comm and this one (along with a bunch of other small guns comms) are basically just single poster communities, so I figured I’d crosspost to help contribute when I see something that’d be a good fit :)

    I’ve got a WWII Japanese bolt gun and the action on that thing is just so dang smooth. If the kick wasn’t so bad and the rounds weren’t so expensive I’d be taking it to the range a whole lot more than I currently do. I really should add a lever gun too.

    Of dozens of guns, a lever gat is the one type I don’t have. All I can afford are .22s. :(

      I wasn’t sure but it looks like they do actually make them in .22. I’m pretty broke too, I have no guns 😅 but that’s okay, I wouldn’t have much opportunity to go shooting right now anyway

        I know that Henry makes them in .22 at least in the golden boy line. I assume they also do in lines that aren’t specifically designed to be pretty/expensive.

          But if you’re going to get a .22, you might as well get a bolt action .22, since they’re stupid accurate.

            Huh, I don’t think I knew that. I’d probably pick the lever just for funsies, but that’s helpful to know, thanks for the tip! :)

        Lots of .22 versions! By far the most affordable and I already have 8 or so .22LR and .22WMR pistols and rifles.

    I agree… Although the 12 Gauge pump is also incredibly satisfying…

    I’ve never owned a lever action rifle, but this is how I felt every time I was able to carry my friend’s.

      If I’m ever in a position to go hunting, I’d really like one as a hunting rifle, they seem like a really fun mechanism to operate
