Thanks for that information Daryl.

I believe Russia purchased some rifle length 1895 (?) Lever action rifles. I have a book from when I was 10 on guns featuring these rifles.

I believe the Johnson's had two lever actions in their armoury. Perhaps for mounted lion shooting? Or unruly massed headhunters?

If the ammo was up to it, I can't see how a .44 or .45 lever action could not be an effective "sub machine gun" compared to long musket length single shot rifles under 100 or 50 yards.

I can shoot my .308 BLR very fast and accurately at a decent sized target. It is very accurate. Light weight. Carbine length. Good for brush, plains, even mountains. If it could take higher capacity magazines it would be perfect.
