Thank you, I'm feeling much better now!

That looks like it would be very uncomfortable to shoot.

I call it "tacticowboy"

Well OK, That....um....leaves me speechless with stomach cramps. John Wayne would cry. Now if that were a tactical
Kentucky rifle....oh forget it
Penmon AKA dumbfounded

JM Browning and OF Winchester are coming back to visit the guys at Mossberg. I think they're gonna leave a mark..................(It is ingenious!! Now EVERYONE will be talking about Mossberg!!)

Thank you. You are a gentleman and a scholar. If ignorance is bliss the people at Mossberg are laughing out loud. Larry

I think I could make a great sig from every single response so far lol.

...I bet you guys were upset when you couldn't get the extended tubular mag option huh? Jk

Like many of you posted there is nothing wrong with cowboy action levers at all! I know I wish I had one. But good god?? what will be next...tactical black powder?!

Bushmaster1313, you might've stopped a few suicides tonight thank you lol

Actually, this type of adjustable stock would have saved me from buying a lever action that had a shortened buttstock. It was not that obvious in the photos, but now I need to replace the butt or fit it with three Limbsavers. If it had been fitted with a tacticool stock like that nobody would have had to reach for their saw to shorten the pull.

The stock is ugly, but the other end of the rifle is what caught my eye. If they have shortened the magazine enough on the .22 and threaded the barrel 1/2 X 28 then I'll buy one. Suppressed lever action.

This thread kinda reminds me of the thread last year about the new Ruger 22/45 RP. Some folks here got a dose of tactical heartburn at the sight of it. I bought one and it turned out to be one heck of a good pistol.

The Mossberg .30-30 will be an exelent homedefence gun.
Intruders will run after a look at it.

I emailed a link to this to some friends - here is one reply:

" Is Kel-Tec planning to come out with a black polymer-frame single-action western wheely-gun to go with this rifle?
And where do I find a Kevlar-composite saddle and a robotic horse?"

I'd like to be in a GS when some young gothic cowboy listening to Marylin Manson through his earbuds came along, looked at that, and proclaimed "I'd like to buy this rifle!"

Come to think of it, no GS owner I know would have one of those in the shop. I hope.

Looks like the military is working on a robotic horse:

Meet AlphaDog, the terrifying robot horse the military's building

As far as I know, nobody’s built a polymer SAA yet though.

...Don't forget the bullet proof cowboy hat too.

I wish I was good with photoshop. This thing would look sexy with a slide fire stock on it...maybe an ACOP w/reflex on top? Vertical grip, suppressor, possibilities are endless!

I think we should have a "how could this get any worse?" pic competition... Winner gets a concussion and I'll quick delete the thread so you never remember seeing it lol

well it does get attention which may be all they want from it. If you flip through its related variants, there are some more attractive "vanilla" offerings. These will take over for the eye hammer, whose purpose is to make us aware Mossburg has jumped into the lever gun game.
what they really need is a few good 45-70's

I knew I should've kept my mouth shut! Although in the states that don't allow breach loading muzzle loaders that wouldn't be half bad for whitetail...

Party would not be complete without, wait for it... TACTICAL O/U SHOTTY!!! Lol Collect the whole set.

Sorry, can't upload direct pics on the iPhone.

Looks like an good old Stirling submachine gun. (we have one in stock)

There is a special level of hell reserved for the nit-wits who have desecrated the model 94 in this way..... disgusting!

Next they will be putting pictures of John Wayne in black tactical gear and wearing a kevlar helmet. All we need now is ivory grips for the Taurus Judge.

I just e-mailed them this:

Gen. Custer could have used those at Little Big Horn.

If I put something that ugly in the safe, my Marlins and Winchesters would cry.

Hold on a second guys. What happened to the promise we all made not to bad mouth any guns just because we didn't like them. If they ban Tactical lever actions-what's next- MP 15-22's with fake suppressors???????????

The market usually shows the acceptance level for any product through success or failure. If in demand, they'll keep making it. If no demand, they'll simply fade away.

I'm also reminded-
The more things change, the more they stay the same.

I was already deep in the 'gun culture' when Glocks came along, so I remember the uproar well.
It was a guaranteed failure because people just wouldn't buy a PLASTIC gun.
They called that one right, didn't they?

I have a lot of different tastes.
I like to hunt with pretty guns. That means a sporting rifle should only have two ingredients: solid walnut and steel. I don't even like for them to have anodized aluminum parts and certainly no plastic. That became a hard standard to adhere to many years ago. EXCELLENT products like Remington shotguns and rifles have had aluminum and/or plastic parts for decades. Steel scopes can be a pain to keep from rusting under harsh conditions unless you like greasy optics.
When it comes to utilitarian and/or duty or 'battle' weapons, it is interesting to me that I seem to not really care. Plastic, aluminum, whatever. Actually, I think wood is best left off guns that serve under harsh conditions. If plastic and/or aluminum works and fills the purpose, it is doing it right.

An internet axiom seems to be that any thread, no matter how positive, can often go negative. Once turned negative, most don't recover any positivity. Conversely, a thread that starts off negatively will rarely ever turn positive. This is the one part of the universe where opposite charges do not consistently attract each other. Negative attracts negative on the internet, yet positive can also attract negative quite often!

Interesting.

Now, I'm not about to be presumptuous enough to tell people what to like.
But, I would hope that everyone would be free to discuss his firearms here, no matter what brand or type, without fear of ridicule. Exagerated repugnance about matte blue and black plastic is, to say the least, a bit dated. I don't see the need to focus on what one can dislike when it is so easily avoided.
An example is Hi-Point or whatever they currently call themselves. It is not the type of weapon that I like to own. Cheap, simple, straight blowback, cast parts. Years ago, I had the opportunity to fire some in both 9mm and 45. They worked. They worked rather well as far as reliability was concerned. OK, still NOT what I want, but I am glad that people on a very limited budget can obtain a relaible gun larger than a 25 auto. Poor folks are entitled to self defense also. I'd rather have a Hi-Point than nothing!

To each his own.
