After reading some of the horror stories posted on various NY firearm forums about 4 month waiting lists for handgun classes and 13 month waits to get permits issued in Saratoga county I'm thinking I might buy a .357 lever action in the meantime. I decided on .357 because it'll compliment the .357 revolver I'm planning on picking out once my paperwork is submitted. I was looking at a Henry but wanted to see if anyone had some recommendations. This will just be a range rifle, I don't hunt, and I'd like to spend $500 or less for a used model if that's feasible.
