Hello all. A long time ago I used to dismiss lever rifles as 'hokey' and 'cowboy like' but after experiencing their quick handling and slim profile in real life I have finally seen the light. I want to buy a lever rifle in 357 magnum to complement my S&W. My biggest requirements are these:
1) Must be able to easily mount a quality peep sight
2) Must have nice blueing with attractive wood stocks
3) Must reliably chamber .38 wadcutters
4) I would prefer a pistol grip stock to a straight one
5) I keep reading gripes about modern safties? I don't really care about this.
I've read the online specs of Winchester, Marlin, etc. but can I get some personal recommendations based on these criteria?
