Before starting an article, experienced writers first decide who their audience is. If I were writing this piece for a print magazine I would probably spend a good deal of time explaining why lever-action rifles are worth considering for personal defense. And then I would spend a good deal of time telling about all of the various makes and models that are available to today’s shooters.
With this group, all of that would be a waste of time. A lot of you own lever guns and quite a few of you have spent as many years using one as I have. So what follows are some of the things I have learned about using lever actions for personal defense. And I expect that a lot of you will share your own tips and techniques in the comments section. We’ll have a sharing session and it will turn out to be a win-win experience.
