I have the Marlin 44 mag lever gun and it is great...
(and if I walk out the back door the neighbors don't get all jittery like they might with the AR)
I mounted a Williams receiver sight on it - and it takes the same fodder as a certain 629 I've been eye-balling
Dad took an Elk with his - in heavy brush
13 in the tube, fast action, only other I would consider is the Taurus 44 Mag pump action - but they are too long in comparison
