[QUOTE="Slack One, post: 441192, member: 2270"] If you start meandering off of just Marlin and Winchester... Savage 99. Now that's a fine lever :) Looks a little weird, but I like the euro-ish lines of them. The little internal rotary magazine is a nice touch as well, though the removable mag versions are OK, I guess. The BLRs are nice guns, but have a weird faux-lever feel to them. Like they're bolt actions dressed up to look like a Win 94. My uncle-in-law has one, and the gear-driven action just feels weird after using more traditional levers. But it is pretty darn smooth. Hrm...Ruger levers. Or "Who stuck this funky chunk of metal to my 10/22?" Though the 96/44 would be a pretty neat little gun, if the magazine didn't gimp cartridge OAL. Mossberg levers? It tickles me that they started out making a blatant Marlin clone, then moved to a blatant Winchester clone three decades later. Curious to see if they move beyond .22 and .30-30. [/QUOTE]
