I said in another thread that it looks like now would be a good time to buy a lever action rifle in order to hedge my bets with the AR frenzy that is going on.
I already have a tube-fed 22 Marlin 60 that should be safe for awhile; although, it is semiauto.
And I already have a bolt-action carbine in 5.56 that I bought to hedge my bets and it should also be safe for awhile.
But I do not own a lever action.
What do you consider to be the best current production lever gun and why?
And what do you consider the best lever rifle caliber for home defense (I don't hunt)?
Thanks! Looking forward to your responses.
PS, this isn't a debate, I am just looking for information.
