I posted a thread about the Mossberg alien looking lever a while back. Have to admit that it offends my sensitivities. Other posters, as here were not enamored with it, but suggested it may appeal to others.
After consideration, yeah to me they are ridiculous and hideous, but if somebody else likes them great for the customers and the companies that put them out.
If we all liked the same guns, I would still own a 3.5”, N frame 357, a first year 4” HP, a 4” 27-2 and a 5” 27-2. Tried em all and didn’t care for a one of them. No accounting for some folks tastes.
