RE: Why Don't People Make Synthetic Stock Lever Actions???
 

I agree. I don't really like synthetic stocks on any gun much less a lever action. I know they are good because they don't swell but I still prefer wooden stocks

doesn't marlin have a stainless with a syn stock?

maybe because everyone wants to feel like a cowboy if they buy a lever.....not a new age cowboy.

RE: Why Don't People Make Synthetic Stock Lever Actions???
 

No , it is a laminated wood stock

RE: Why Don't People Make Synthetic Stock Lever Actions???
 

Yeah it looks cool but this doesn't hold to the reputation of what a lever gun is. A lever gun is a rustic no nonsense peice of equipment that is a thing of beauty and craftsmanship.

And is a good looking gun..

Would be like putting a Nightforce scope on a flintlock.

RE: Why Don't People Make Synthetic Stock Lever Actions???
 

True. I really like synthetic stocks, but not on a lever gun.

No scope either. Lucas McCain didn't use a scope.

It is the nicest looking rifle I have owned:

I agree. My first gun was a 30-30 Marlin 336. I prefer shooting it open sights too. I have a scope on it currently, but I'm not sure if it will stay there...

RE: Why Don't People Make Synthetic Stock Lever Actions???
 

I think Marlin used to have a 336 in a camo synthetic stock that could be had in either youth or full size. I almost bought the youth model for my son, but he was only 2 at the time and I couldn't convince the wife that he needed it.
