Lever-action rifles now a “deadly innovation”…

Everytown now considers lever-action rifles a “deadly innovation”. I guess none of them have ever seen a western movie.

Oh, they have:

That big loop makes it sooo much killier, too.

Nest they'll see the hominid scene from 2001: A Space Odyssey and declare that nobody should own assault femurs.

sounds like the Australian playbook. They went after levers a while back too

To be fair, our founding fathers could have never imagined deadly assault lever action rifles. In fact, they could not have imagined anything beyond muskets, so that's all we should have. Obviously.

...it was great pity, so it was,
This villainous saltpeter should be digged
Out of the bowels of the harmless Earth,
Which many a good tall fellow had destroyed
So cowardly, and but for these vile guns...

You mean Lexington or Concord?

Similar to a belt loop for bump fire the lever lends itself to be a mechanism to touch off a round as soon as it is chambered. Just a guess.

The Rifleman had a screw tapped into the lever to pull the trigger when cycled, one round per trigger press so I'm guessing well within the ATF's ever changing rules..... for now

I just checked and pink shirts are sold out so they are getting ready for the new session.

And they are losing at the national level.

Every bad law that gets crushed adds stability to the foundation.

What this country needs is a good $1000 lightweight Gatling gun in .223.

Perhaps a single barrel Ager or Gardner, or a mini- Nordenfelt.

K. Dumas approves !

 

[Jimgoespewpew]

It wouldn't be a very good gun if it wasn't deadly.

 

[Threeband]

A gun that ain't loaded and cocked ain't good for nothing.
