Or maybe a 45acp?
Was thinking about it the other day. With a 20 inch barrel length you could get 18 rounds in the tube or so. Would be more fun than a lever action 22. |

10+1 or 9+1 on most of the carbines I've seen.
With 9mm you'd have a little more power than 38spl but you'd get nearly double the ammo. |

Tublar magazines and FMJ round nose bullets are not a good combination.

I keep kicking around the idea of a suppressed 38 lever action. they are made of course the threading and sight replacement would require some gunsmith work but i think it would be a fun little package and probably pretty quiet.

Why, yes. Yes there are such animals. And they make them in 9mm as well.
Pistol caliber lever gun. .45 10mm |

maybe some kind of conversion on a Ruger 96 with the rotary mag-but not in a traditional style.
ETA-not questioning the possibility, just saying I wouldn't want one. |

So either I hate you, or thank you...I'm not sure which. |

Pump action would be faster, and a little pistol cartridge would make for a super short and quick action.

View Quote Reloading for 357 mag, I load 6gr CFE pistol which is on par with 9mm load (5.5gr in 9mm) Shoot a 158gr lead bullet and use the same small pistol Primer. Getting 1,250fps. Being lower pressure the 357 brass does not stretch too much. I can load 18gr of lil gun with the same 158gr bullet and exceed 2,000fps. Can't do that with a 9. |

I love my Remington 121. Looks like a baby 870 Wingmaster, near 39A level accuracy. View Quote Now I just need to get a Model 62 to go with my 61 .....Pump .22s are addicting |

If you can wait till this fall, Glock is coming out with a semi auto carbine in 9mm.
I know it's not a lever, but it might interest you. |

I'm going to go against the grain here. A lever gun in 9mm, .40 or 45 would be cool to have for sure. Other than wanting one so I could have a lever action while still only owning the minimum number of chamberings, I don't see the benefits.

Or bolt.
A modern delisle carbine in 9mm off either a lever or bolt action would be awesome. |

I have always wondered if .45 auto rim would work in a long Colt lever gun?
I think the auto rim case head is thicker. |

I want a scaled down lever action in .327 magnum for my petite daughter. I think out of a 16 inch barrel, that thing would scream.
