In a post above, somebody expressed surprise that underlever snap action rifles would be offered into the 1930's. Well guess what, they are offered today! Butch Searcy offers the underlever as an option with his rifles. I believe it is offered by English and Continental makers as well.

Yes, that was me! I made the comment because I thought a snap action was something a bit different than what it turned out to be; merely a means to return the locking mechanism to it's locked position upon closing the breech. Indeed you are correct. I would love to have a new under-lever or a side lever and, if it can be made for me by Peter Hofer or Philipp Ollendorff, I will have reached Nirvana!
