This rifle has some advantages that are often overlooked. It's weight is light compared to most scoped rifles. If you have to carry a rifle every day weight will make a difference. Stick with iron sights, these will work well for most situations inside the 30-30 cartridges intended range for hunting approx 200 yards max. Peep sights may be easier for some people and more accurate. These work come rain or shine, light or dark, and no batteries to fail. The overall length of the carbine is reasonable compared to some long rifles. This aids you in hunting in the brush or in tight areas as you may find inside a home defense situation. Some states require no cartridges in the magazine if the rifle is in your vehicle, use a elastic butt cuff that holds 8 cartidges, this will keep your ammo available and with your rifle if you need it quick. while this set up is not as quick to load the entire magazine. Loading the first cartridge into the magazine and having a first shot to shoot is faster than loading a detachable magazine fed Ak47 rifle hands down. If you don't believe me try it out with a AK47, remember the chamber on the AK47 has to be charged after the mag is inserted, the lever action requires you to open the breach by working the lever down, inserting the cartridge and close the action. This can be accomplished with the rifle shouldered, the way the leveraction was meant to used. While this is not a true modern combat weapon, it can be purchased at a reasonable price. When you combine it with a good high capacity pistol like a 9mm Glock, you have the ability to defend your family and have some serious self defense firepower.
