The Rifleman's Rifle

The concept of The Rifleman Television show revolves around the unique weapon wielded by the title character Lucas McCain, and his proficiency with it. Customized by James S. Stembridge, Lucas McCain’s modified 1892 Winchester SRC in .44-.40 caliber features a large rounded ring that allowed him to cock it by twirling the rifle 360 degrees. While presumably, this wouldn’t be any faster than the conventional cocking method, the technique itself was probably a good psychological weapon, as the move may be likened to a samurai brandishing his sword with lightning speed. This may startle (or puzzle) an adversary and cause him to drop his guard momentarily.

Hi Cobber, ive used a few Winchester lever actions and didn't like them one bit, clanky and rough, when I did a lot of pig hunting my favourite go to rifle was a marlin 30-30 with a 1-4 times scope on top, great pig stopper..
