Hi.
I've been coming to these forums for a few months now, mainly "legal and political". But there are a number of terms I've seen people use, and not know/am not sure what they mean. Could someone explain them for me please?
(I have never used a firearm of any type myself, as I like in a country (UK) where almost all firearms are banned, and the rest highly regulated. I came to this site here while researching pro/anti RKBA issues, and eventually settled down as firmly pro-RKBA).
But back to my questions:
Bolt/lever-action rifles.
What exactly are they? (I know they are non-automatic rifles, but would like to know more about how they actually work).
And what advanteges do they have (if any) over semi-auto rifles? (I've read several posts where someone has said "The best gun for x situation is a high-precision level rifle, so I assume they have some specific advantage over other types?)
Thanks
