I will take quality over 1.9lbs.

A good sling makes a huge difference. I walked several miles with a 12lbs rifle + backpack back in November and didn't even feel it, it was very comfortable to carry.

taylor arms makes a ss 20 inch barrel 44 mag 10 round capacity take down; it's pricey but a beauty. in takedown it is super compact. i have a marlin texan 22 lr takedown, rare only: made for a short period, the perfect survival gun

Who thought 357, lightest lever gun ever, and wanted that?

I've been thinking about getting the Henry Big Boy Steel. The one with the side gate and large loop. @KAG Arms has the best price I've seen however unfortunately I'm putting a set of tires on my Wrangler Saturday so my discretionary cash is low this month.

There's a little bit of difference between shooting .357 in a 13 ounce revolver versus a 5.5 pound rifle.

A casual plinker, or a home defense gun that gets one box a year through it and then sits in the corner the rest of the time, will last several lifetimes even if the receiver is aluminum.

Some CAS players might even start out with it as something affordable, and be surprised at how long it lasts.

A Rossi 92 in 357 weighs about 5.5 lbs.

CAS will not use it. Can't be short stroked and it will fall apart with the abuse.
