I was originally thinking about 9mm, but in terms of magazine tube safety, isn't .40SW flatnosed enough not to caused detonation?
I would love a 336 in 9mm or .40SW. ETA- I guess you'd have to figure out the rim issue. |

There are some model 92s out there that were chambered in .45 acp. Used in South American countries if I remember right. Mark Novak or anvil gunsmithing on YouTube had a restoration video. I for one would love to have a 1911/model 92 combo…

Used to be a company that converted either marlins (or winchesters?) to 9mm/40s&w/45acp. They charged $$$.

If you want to be safe just go with a lever gun chambered in .357 magnum or 44 magnum. That way you can shoot 38 special and 44 special both pistol calibers. Both those rounds have quite a few Flat Nose loadings that are safe for lever guns. I have a Rossi 92 chambered in .357 magnum that I purchased in 2001 and has served me well.

There's just too many issue with that caliber... |

Just avoid spire points and similar shapes. |
