Hah! Yeah - only ones I have in the house.... I used to have a Browning BL-22, but it really never bonded, so it was traded in for part of the 1885.
I've got a Marlin 1895 Guide Gun from 1971 or 72 in 45/70 that I've taken Deer, Boar and Beer with. My go to gun.

A MARLIN LEVER GUN, IN ANY CALIBER, CARRYING A QUALITY SCOPE, IS A DEADLY WEAPON......
A LOW MOUNTED SCOPE DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH MARLIN'S SIDE EJECTION---AND IMHO, DOES NOT COMPROMISE THE AESTHETIC BEAUTY OF THE RIFLE....

I enjoy my Winchester .44 94AE
Mid 50's M94 30-30..got this one in 1978, we have a lot of miles together.
Marlin 57 22 Magnum, this is a very early production made before the "M" was added to the model number.
Also have Marlin 336C that I got in 1973, it was NIB.

A few
Winchester 94, 30-30. One of the last ones build in the US, a real ***. The lever is like dragging a toilet plunger thru a bucket of rocks, and the trigger pull is greater than 40 pounds
Savage 99, 22-250
Marlins
1895 45-70 One of the most accurate rifles I have, not much fun to shoot though
1894cl 25-20 , just got it, ammo on the way.
Levermatic, 22 mag and 30 carbine. Both accurate, actually awsume.
I would love to find a 1894 in 218 Bee and 357 mag. A 336 219 Zipper and a levermatic in 256 mag

Couple Brownings. 22lr and 30-06. Both wearing Leupold scopes. Both have killed their fair share.
Is there any beer left in the can after being hit with that 45-70?
Seems like such a waste.
Levers are fun guns and loaded with nostalgia.
I have bought and sold a few over the course of time. My first few deer were taken with levers in the 1960s. Winchester 94 in .32 special got a couple and a Marlin in .35 Rem got a couple. (both long gone)
Down in the safe I have my Uncles Model 94 in .32.40 25'' barrel half mag and curved butt plate made in the late 1800s. I was given that gun in the mid 60s. Also have a 94 saddle ring carbine in 30 WCF made in 1917. Have one more modern gun a carbine in .45 Colt.

I've got 2 Winchesters: a 9422 XTR and a 94AE Legacy in .357. My son has a Henry .22. I still kick myself for passing on a beautiful Marlin in .357 years ago.
Not until recently. I bought one of the new Marlin 336W's and I couldn't be happier. It doesn't have the "grip cap" or "bullseye" of the higher end models but, it's accurate and the action in butter smooth. Love the matte blue finish too..........means not having to wipe off smudges and finger prints.

The Win model 1895
That is the gun for me. It's on my list of rifles I want, but it's not the one that I need most. Maybe one day.

Those old brass tumbler Savages are built like a swiss watch. I only have one (243) but I like it.
