What makes our
Marlin "Medium" large loop levers better?
1) Current big
loop lever action offerings incorporate a loop that is very tall and
circular, but the aggressive upper curve still makes gloved fingers bunch
together. We made more space fore and aft by flattening and extending the
upper curve, allowing the fingers to rest naturally along the pistol grip.
2) The "big loop" levers also have two effects that we don't care
for: a) it creates an odd lag time when opening the action, while the hand
leaves the grip and the fingers travel downward before smacking abruptly into
the lower rung of the loop (with bare hands this can get uncomfortable
quickly); and b) the loop adds significantly to the height dimension of the
rifle and becomes the lowest point. Finish scratches are inevitable, and
handiness is sacrificed for style.
3) Additional space in the trigger guard area, where it is vital. Gloved
fingers are a pretty tight fit in factory trigger guards. That should make
anyone nervous when the hammer is back. We also decreased the dimension
separating loop and guard, allowing the fingers to sit naturally, close
together.
4) Aesthetically, we designed our lever to blend more naturally with the lines
of the stock, complementing the attractive curve of the pistol grip and
aligning perfectly with the straight stocks.
