Lance,I'm kind of leaning toward a Marlin 1894,mainly because there is an aftermarket trigger available that will reduce the pull to 2 to 3 pounds and there are spring kits available also.

sisfire.I believe a change like this would strictly be a DNR regulation change and the legislature would not be involved.When handguns were allowed,you know that the anti-gun congress would have never approved if it was up to them.

It would be nice not being pounded by my 12 ga. slug shooter
