kissing cows

Like the fella that kissed the cow, if you like stainless lever carbines, have at it. I'm a blue steel and walnut kinda guy myself. For certain though, there are advantages to a stainless hard use rifle. And, I am a big fan of .357 lever carbines.

Congrats on your new gun.

I'm betting that it's a 20" as it's a standard carbine.

I like it. Yes, I prefer blued steel, but the stainless is ok and undeniably corrosion resistant. And the stocks are real wood, so it's all good. And guess what? Stainless is excellent with black-powder!

That is a nice looking lever gun, congrats on the newest addition. I have an older Interarms Rossi 357 and it is super fun to shoot with 38's, feels like a 22.

Very nice!I used to be a "blued only" kind of guy with classic style guns, but the stainless lever guns are growing on me. Can't beat stainless out in the woods where these guns belong either.
