I bought a brand new .44 carbine in 1977 (?) and loved it with the exception of the 5 round in-stock magazine had problems jamming. I sold it because of that issue. I'm sure that after 40+ years they got it lined out. Nice having a rifle and revolver that shared the same cartridge though.

I also had a .357 lever gun to share with my Dan Wesson for a while. But the lever gun just wasn't for me so off it went too.

I won't shoot mine. It's new and I'll keep it new as an investment.
