But will have to work on a solution for the light. Mlock is actually a new thing to me so I'm trying to take in all the options available. It's a little bit overwhelming actually lol. But add switches and probably a small handstop. Maybe some rail scales. Then off for a m81 camp job |

Check out the UNITY TAPS SYNC and UNITY HOT BUTTON solutions for your light/laser combo. Depending on which variant of the TAPS you choose, you'd have the option of activating both your light and laser simultaneously with a single button press. Since you already have an onboard IR illuminator, I understand that this might not be important to you. The Mlok system is very easy to use and saves quite a bit of time/weight. You'll figure it out in no time. TAPS SYNC HOT BUTTON |

Build Update - 02/26/23:
Pic heavy post below. I'm really liking the new Midwest forend with the full length picatinny rail. The EFLX is nice, with much clearer glass than the DPP. The Form rifle stock takes everything to a whole new level. Not going to fuck with this one much more, unless the optic craps out and I need to switch back to the DPP. I'll have to see what I want to do with the other rail. Maybe throw it on my Marlin Dark 336 Scout build. Enjoy...

So I got an new rail mount for my two lever guns. I only have pics of one right now. They are Marlin's, one 1894 in 357 and a 30A in 30-30.
I've Boyds stocks on both, and the new Skinner lever gun light mounts. I did drill and tap the mount to add front side QD sling mounts. It came out really nice. Consider the Skinner mount one of the best upgrades you can do if you do NOT want a complete rail system on your classic.

Well speaking for myself, I haven't used ANY type of weapon in combat.
I use my lever action for hunting and fun, and because of its reliability, accessories and ease of use I'd have zero qualms using it in a defensive situation. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By jeepnik: One question. Has anyone actually used any of these creations in a combat situation. Looks like a lot of weight and complication for no real gain. Combat situation?... I sure hope not. Lever guns, including our "Tactical" creations here, would be wildly inefficient in modern-day combat. You'd be heavily outgunned by any adversary. (Having served in a special operations capacity in Iraq, I've witnessed the imbalance of war first-hand... It's always better to be on the side that is better equipped.  )Personally, my tactical lever actions accomplish a few things... They're fun to build and look cool. (We all know that looking cool is the #1 rule of being "tactical." Lol.) They're also fun to shoot, hunt, and train with. The training component is the most important consideration for me in the event we see an extreme tyrannical overreach in our lifetime that relieves us of our evil, black "assault rifles." Although wildly inefficient in comparison, I want to maintain the same capabilities with a simple firearm as I do with my M4's... Red dot optics, IR lasers, white/IR illumination, etc... Sort of my take on the old "Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it" adage. Weight was not a consideration when putting my builds together, but they're really not much different than a fully decked-out M4. Also, did I mention that these are fun... Now, no more pissing in the proverbial picture thread corn flakes, please!
