Anyone own an SBR or suppressed lever action?

[Sheepdog1968]

I always thought an SBR lever action would be fun and handy. What's it like have and carry and use? I can't easily own one in CA (though there is a form I can fill out). I could see a 45-70 or 44 mag being fun to have. I'd love to go hunting with one. I have a few lever actions in the 16.5" range and love them. I guess as they get smaller they start to remind me of a BB gun I had as a kid.

(Hickok45 shooting one and talking about it. This one is both an SBR and a suppressor host.)

The problem is that magazine tube: the shorter the barrel, the less room for cartridges. Wouldn't matter too much for pistol cartridges, but an SBR 45-70 would hold like 3 rounds, which is not as much fun.

IMHO
