Lever Action Rifles
A lever-action rifle is a rifle that utilizes a handle attached to the trigger guard to move the bolt forward and rearward loading and extracting cartridges in and out of the chamber. Like other repeating firearms, lever-action rifles allow the user to fire multiple shots without reloading the firearm. Lever action designs might be most associated with the old west and cowboys, but the reliability and the ability to shoot magnum cartridges makes this weapon type a viable option still today. Whether you're looking for a new hunting rifle that can cut through thick brush or your next bear defense gun consider a lever action when making your decision.
