Probably a stupid question but I see quite a few of these around $2-250 (fill me in if there is a better used option below 300) and wanted to pick one up for hog hunting (impulse buy really)...

We have a 4rd mag restriction for centerfire here in FL.. Is there a magazine capacity plug for these (I assume they feed like a shotgun but I am new to levers)? I know I can use a dowel on shotguns but I would rather pay the $10 for the plastic plug that fits perfect.

Well, I'm an idiot, I guess I was going off the shotgun restriction

Good news though, if you didn't post that and someone actually posted a plug I probably would have bought one lol
