Thinking of a new form 1 project. Getting a lever gun and having it cut down and threaded after the tax stamp comes back. Why? Because it would be a fun and handy 357/38 gun with a bit better reach than my 2.5 or 4" revolvers. Don't care much if I lose velocity, will shoot it out to 100-150yd max. And I can put a can on it Might also put an Aimpoint or Cmore on it and create a real abomination. Anyone done or shot something like this?

It might be easier to simply add a full stock to a mare's leg lever gun. Very cool idea. I've heard .38spl can be very quiet when suppressed/subsonic.

Found this answer on an online gun site. Fuck, the public education system is a lot worse than I thought!
"one ague that one is not a manfactur simply by putting already made parts togather, in fack u not, atf law says u are, atf has lot probems it not be hard take most gun control down 2ed admement states that guns is to provent govement from enslaveing us it also give us the power to take back the government these arugments never used in cort do to how they sound sound like u want war so they never been used fack is 2ed admenment was set up to start a civel war agest the fed government u want take atf out use the words. also equal rights fack is atf allowing certen states grow pot I find odd these states are hardest on gun laws, I have wounder if atf is not traiding our rights away to grow and sell pot, facks point to it strong facks, equal rights, atf dose not have power to decied what laws to enforce they must enfoce all laws equaly there not doing this, I would aruge that atf is not competent to enforce any laws because they chosieing what laws o inforce in traid for harder gun control laws this must end we must not traid our rights away to a drug

Or you could just watch auctions and shell out some bucks for an original Volcanic and then make your own cartridges.

Hickcock45 had a video up of a Mary's leg SBR with a can on it. Drool worthy.
