This was inevitable

Post by dddrees » Thu Sep 06, 2018 9:02 am

Ever since getting my Vaquero awhile ago I had been thinking about getting a 357 lever as well. I had originally determined that the Winchester Miroku would be the one and then there was a good bit of thought that the Marlin 1894 would be it as well. However after more reading and research I decided to go with the Henry Big Boy. I'm pretty sure I'm not through with lever guns and I have others in my sights as we speak but for now this is the one I decided to go with and I am happy I did.
