Years ago I got a wild hair and bought a Mossberg 464 lever in 30-30. Their "Marinecote" set up is both great looking and water resistant.
Several times a year I take the boy and his buds up to the woods to shoot, and they fight over who gets to shoot this. That alone justifies, in my mind, the purchase.
I recently inherited my grandfather's 50+ year old Marlin 30-30. Took it and my nephew out to our usual range to practice with our ARs. We both end up fighting over the Marlin because it was just fun to shoot and easy to shoot reasonably well.
ReplyDeleteEvery young person I have introduce to firearms ends up loving the lever action. Marlins are simply fabulous guns.
DeleteA great gun to shoot.
