I like the semi autos but I'll always love wheel guns and lever action rifles.
I had one of those that my dad and uncles had when they where kids. My Dad "borrowed" it and took it the WV with him. It was a single shot but I could hit spent 12 ga shells at damn near 100 yds all the time. I miss that gun.My post war Mauser .22 trainer my dad gave me for fathers day 26 years ago. I shoot it at least once a week. It will soon go to the next generation.
Be safe and be accurate.
