handgun caliber rifles have been all the rage since 1873 (or actually 1860)

here is one of my original handgun caliber rifles circa 1882 (this is a file photo from the web...not mine...I have 2, 1 made in 1882 and the other,my son's, had filed off serial numbers, which has been corrected, and we dont know how old it is...)

Lever actions have a pleasant racking sound too.
