In todays plastic/tac-rail/picatinny whatchamacallit, I also don't believe levers are tactical whatsoever.
BUT! I also recall articles written by Viet Nam vets who saw .444 Marlin's used in CQ combat in the jungle. A hard hitting round is hard hitting no matter what it comes out of. Rate of fire is another thing but honestly, WHO needs a high rate of fire for sustained periods of time as a civilian? Which also begs the question, how many people who would rely on these for home defense will practice enough with expensive ammo to become second nature proficient with them in the dark and know an adrenaline dump won't interfere with motor skills? <1%??
Its the Honda Fury of firearms. Honda brought that bike out about the time Orange County Choppers was cancelled and the whole chopper craze was ending. Welcome to the party but everyone is leaving.
It thrills me to see us on the other side of the tacti-cool craze. I was finally able to replace my HBAR for half what they were going for a year ago.
I'm eager to see what the next craze is, hope its more cheap plastic guns so the stuff I want stays cheap.
