  1. Glock 22/31 .40s&w to 9mm conversion barrel by Alpha Wolf(lone wolf). Never used. $100    .....         I wonder if that would fit a Gen3  G27?     I know the barrel would stick out but  function is all that matters to me.

  2. Good Point !    I could always sale it if i end up wanting 30-30.    I know the 45 colt will not be time accurate Im just trying to avoid adding another caliber to my list....But the advantage the 30-30 gives may just make it worth it 😆

  3. I think i am in a good spot to ask this question..   Before i start i understand that 30-30 is superior to 45LC.  I am in the market for a leveraction and trying to decide between the two calibers listed above. The main reason  i would go 45LC is due to the fact i have a Vaquero in that caliber and would not need to add another caliber to my list...The Eastern woods here should i use it to hunt 45LC is gunna do the job.  The 45LC seems a no brainer but am i overlooking any Real advantage by not going 30-30?  like   price,availability,scarcity,etc.

    Go with the one that shoots .357 magnum and .38 caliber. I think the Winchester 1873 is the model that won’t be too expensive. Expect to spend just above $1,500 if new.

    Thank You!!    I Had it down to either the 73 or 94.    I think i will be happy with the 73.    It seem to "look" more like the old school lever..Mostly because no safety but they both very nice.

    The 1873 and later 1892 were designed to fire handgun length cartridges. The 1894 was designed for rifle cartridges. The 73 was originally offered in .44-40. Where as the 94 was originally  offered in .30-30. 

    However, today Winchester does offer the Model 94 in .357, .44 Magnum and .45 Colt. Most lever fans consider the Model 92 better for these rounds as it cycles smoother and is a bit smaller and lighter. 

    BTW: Safeties on these rifles is a fairly recent addition. Most lever lovers consider them an abomination. 🤬

    🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠  (Most lever lovers consider them an abomination. 🤬    ) I Have to agree!!!!

    I've been meaning to take a picture of mine for a long time. Just never got around to it. This thread has prompted me to get off my butt, dig 'em out of the safe and do just that. 😉
