I've been a lever guy for a long time. Especially liked the Marlins over the Winchesters. I read about the early Savages (1899 & 99) and was impressed by the design in the early 1900's, when compared to Marlins/Winchesters. The rotary magazine with the counter was a great advance. I am a disabled retired Chiropractor and although I don't hunt much, I've come to enjoy Silhouette shooting quite a bit.
