The Lever Aficionados Thread

[Preacher]

The Citadel is cheaper if buying new from what I see, not opposed to the rossi but would prefer synthetic and dark metal work

[scotty]

anyone else notice the difference in recoil between straight stock and pistol grip in the same chambering or is it just me that found my straight stock winny had less recoil than my marlin both 30/30

Getting a little bit of a lever gun urge, and as much as I appreciate the wood, blued and such I don't think I want to spend good coin on a really nice specimen. Something utilitarian that I can bash about in CNI bush and not care too much about, in .44 mag is what I was thinking. Anyone have anything to say about the Citadel Levtac? Good or bad.

I have one in .44. It is very accurate and very easy to carry around.
Mine came with screws that were too short holding the rail on, these got replaced under warranty.
Also if you are going to suppress it the thread goes back a touch from the end cap of the magazine. DPT make a suppressor that is tapered which accommodate this, if not you may need a washer.
I think they are made in the same factory as the Rossi.

Citadel .44 doing the business for a bit of winter bush stalking.
