Hi all,
I've been trolling the internet for a couple of days looking for info, but I'm not coming up with much. Is there any manufacturer currently producing a Winchester 1886 model rifle in 45-90? Is any manufacturer producing any similar lever guns in 45-90? My boss is looking for one and asked me to see what I could find---how can I complain? I'm getting paid to look for firearms! Winchester seems to sell Miroku-made examples every few years, but a call to Winchester didn't help much---the customer service rep says they aren't given any info on future manufacturing plans.
Marlin was another strikeout.
Lever guns in 45-70 are fairly common, I know, and ther are several Sharps-type rifles in 45-90, but that's not what the boss is after. He doesn't have any problem with buying good condition used, but I figured I would get what information I could before suggesting it.
Oh well, any info is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jeffrey
