Anybody ever had one in 357 or 44 mag? Seems like a cool gun if it functions good.

Shooting buddy had one in .357 if was solid performing but the bluing was purplish. I've never seen a rifle disappear that quickly from market. I think Evan Whildin designed the thing he of .41 Action Express fame. Had a Solothurn Swiss. 41/9 combo that some ol'boy HAD to have then the .40 was introduced like 3 months later.

I passed on one in .357 Mag about 25 years ago and have regretted it ever since.
No clue about function, etc, just always thought they were cool.

I don't know what the draw on this is..... they are sort of like a Turkish shotgun. Not the most smooth thing you've ever shot ... and the overall feels about like a lever gun. Which I would consider good handling and who doesn't like that. That's one positive.
Ok then.... I'd place a trapper carbine lever gun as the way better option.
They didn't make or import a lot of them so they didn't sell well... mainly because nobody wanted them. 30 years later then this is a hot ticket item? Goes to show you just never know.
