Am I foolish??

[Rockgod]

I carry a Taurus .357 Mag w/4" barrel when I'm out on my farm, and I really want a .357 Mag lever action rifle, w/20" barrel to carry as well as a compliment to the pistol. Reasoning being that I only have to carry 1 ammo type with me when I'm out there.
Am I foolish to spend the money on a .357 lever action just to fill my desire to have the same ammo delivery system?

Life is too short, get what you want. :thumbsup:

I picked up a Rossi .357 lever, 20" barrel for pretty much the same reason, although I almost never carry either around the farm. I can't comment on the quality of Henry's or Marlin's, but I'm very pleased with the quality of the Rossi/Braztech/Taurus/whatever it is. I gone through about 500 rounds of a mix of .38 special/.357 magnum and don't think that I've had any misfires or misfeeds. The accuracy of the rifle is better than mine, and I just love lever guns.

So, in a nutshell, I don't think you're foolish/crazy/silly/anything. Rather, I think you're just on the right track!

Good luck with whatever you choose and take care.
