Gun and gear reviews tactical lever action

I was thinking of getting the Canuck Wrangler Blackout but I don't know if I should pull the trigger now or wait to see if Henry or another more maintained company will come out with a tactical lever action. not that I'm saying Canuck isn't reliable, I just know Henry (for example) has been doing lever actions for a little longer

Smith and wesson has a stealth hunter too. If your ok with waiting the Marlin Darks are probably the nicest (i retail all 4, henry, marlin, canuck, and s&w). And the henry's arent without problems too if you do a quick search you'll see some have feeding issues too and stuff.

I thought the big issue with Henry was mostly their old firing pin problem? They changed it to a single piece design to mitigate the snapping problem no?

I know for a while they took a big hit in QC. Snapping firing pins, feed issues (i personally have not encountered these with my rifles).

Apparently they've done work to mitigate this (especially now that they're rebranding all their stuff).

The first wave of supremes apparently also had problems?

Yeah, i mean it happens, look at the half ton truck world right now, im not saying its an avoid at all cost brand by any means, just that i wouldnt necessarily say theyre a more bullet proof lever than canuck
