I love carrying my .30-30 lever. If it wasn't for the limited range I would carry it all the time right now I just use it as a brush and timber gun tho.

An unused gun does nothing but collect dust.

Shoot it, there is really no collector value to it.

Do it justice and be honored to be the first one to shoot the heck out if it.

I'd shoot it and hunt with it. Who wants a gun they won't ever shoot?
