The Rifleman and numerous present day entertainment shooters prove different.
Reloading? kinda slow..
Nice thing about a lever, you can keep your target while cycling another round. Of course it’s not a semi but in speed a lever is #2.
That is what I thought when I first saw that photo and saw the hammer. I figured a lever action hunting rifle, But they said he shot 30+ rounds inside the Parliament building.
I thought a Winchester held maybe 6 or 7 rounds. Am I missing something? How many times did he have to reload to get that many rounds off?
