SierraBT ArmasTermin By the way... many of these have a stud thing you can put on the side of the hammer to work with a scope, but aren't the rifles chambered and cocked by working the lever? You don't have to pull the hammer back by hand for every shot, do you? Because I sure hope not... every Winchester I've ever seen fired with only the work of the lever, but if so, what's the point of a thumb stud? Yep, it's just nice to have the ability to have one in the chamber with the hammer down. The stud is so that you can easily c**k it while a scope is on the rifle and in the way of where your thumb would usually have to be.
Yeah, I guess that makes sense. So there's a lever or a button on the rifle that safely drops the hammer or you just hold it with your thumb while pulling the trigger like a SAA?
Either way, thanks Sierra. You always seem to have the answer I need.

ArmasTermin OberFeldwebel The lever action .357 does have a coolness factor all it's own. So does the StG-2000. Frankly I would figure it as a coin toss. Did you show a picture of the .357 lever action that you're thinking about getting? I'm not entirely sure. It could be any lever-action .357 really. EDIT: I do like the looks of this Marlin: http://www.impactguns.com/store/026495142001.html But an 18" barrel isn't that long. More of a carbine than a rifle. I wanted something a little more long range. This .30-.30 looks good, too: http://www.impactguns.com/store/026495015107.htmlLove the gold trigger. By the way... many of these have a stud thing you can put on the side of the hammer to work with a scope, but aren't the rifles chambered and cocked by working the lever?

The first Marlin looks superb.
