I have been looking into a Puma, lever action in .45colt.    I really do not know very much about this weapon even though I do like the look of it.   I would appreciate any comments from you pards.   Good, Bad or Ugly.

'92 clones are, to me anyway, the best looking of any rifle used in this game.  Browning designed, classic.  I've had the honor of shootin' an original in 25-20.

Strong actions.  Lots of parts moving against one another.  Long lever throw.  Ya can't play shootin' it, has to be worked.  As I've posted before, the lever on mine is bent from me slammin' it.

Ya wanna pretty rifle, go for it.  Ya want somethin' quick, get somethin' else.

Thanks Arcy,,,,,,the lever throw doesn't bother me that much, the '94 Marlin I am using now seems that the lever reaches out forever.   It truly is one fine looking gun,,,and I have been looking for a "nice" .45 lever action in that price range.
