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

So based on our current political climate, I've purchased a lot of levers on the last couple f years but haven't had much time to get out to the range. Most have one trip, some none. Will say that the quality curve vs price is real. I have everything from levtac to S&W (regular first run stainless and a stealth hunter with RPP hardware), and a big boy x with Midwest parts I never put on.
The henry is solid but heavy. I never got around to putting on the Midwest handguard and such. Moving now and probably going to list it tbh. S&W punches really high for being a relatively new launch back into the lever market. I have the 19" 44 mag and the 16" 357. Super happy with both and the RPP Stealth really scratches the tactilever itch. Big space cowboy vibes (big damn heroes!). The levtac has been....fine? Some issues. QC. Fitment. Lever really needed some love and working in. Overall fit and finish. But I also bought it for half or less of the others. I knew that going into it. Never did get around to any Canuck levers yet.
If you're interested in a Henry, reach out. Or if you happen to be Edm area and want to check out some side by side.
