Friends..
I was gifted this rifle... I know that the concept of a tactical lever action is just down right ridiculous to some.. But, I can see the value of this rifle..
1. It's very compact..
2. Has an adjustable stock (which makes the rifle fit me)
3. The night sights help the aging eyes...
So... from a utilitarian stand point... I really like it...
But this is my first lever rifle. Is there anything out of the ordinary that I need to know...
1. Will any .30-30 ammo work on a lever rifle... or must I purchase the rifle ammo with the safety tips due to the tubular design..
2. Any time saving tips on cleaning?
3. I know that there are at least two safeties on the rifle... can the rifle be safely carried with one in the chamber...with the safety on? Cocked and locked...or hammer down with safety on?
Thanks.
