Lever action rifles

[giles]

This bump made me get off my butt and go look at some things. The 44 lever action i thought I got isn't a 44 at all. Odd, because I would put money on it that dad told me he bought one. Turns out to be a Rossi Rio Grande 410. Only takes 2.5" shells...anyone know a use for this? My brain can't put together why someone would buy this.

I also ended up with a 22 my grandpa owned. Marlin golden 29A. I don't think either has ever been fired.

Actually it's hard to find 3" 410 now days. Almost all of them on the shelves are two and a half. I've been hoarding 410 rounds for the last few years for when Sydney starts shooting. Which will be soon

You can find 2.5” down here all day. 3”? Not so much….. Luckily, I have a few boxes from my beagle chasing days….

410 is awesome for bunnies and squirrels. I love taking my o/u out hunting bunnies in the snow with my friends beagles. Even better when several people use them. Lots of fun and ball breaking to be had.

Gorgeous..... those are a classic and a joy to shoot. The fact that it's "grandpa's " makes it even better.

What an abomination

We can agree to disagree
