Bass pro has the Puma lever guns for sale for $385 for the 16" model, and $479 for the 20" model inn 44 mag. I am looking for a 44 mag deer gun for Indiana. How does this gun rate over say a marlin?
I was looking of a handi rifle, but nobody local can get one.
I would pick the Marlin easily over this especially for the price you have quoted. I am not saying the Puma is a bad lever.
