I own many Winnies. Rifles. Lever action.
The Winchester 10 guage lever action has to be one of the very best guns I own. The machining is perfect. I can slide the gun on my hand, tilt my elbow, and because of the perfectly balanced design, cock the gun one handed. And then once cocked, blow a hole the size of a basketball in to something. Mine is an 1887 model, very rare and such. There are other models, but they pale when compared. The 1887 is perfection. It is called by many a hand held cannon. You can fill it with grape shot or dum dums and do some serious damage. Allow me to say, this is the gun you want to reach for when the zombies come. When you fire, there will not be a zombie left.
I have a model 94 lever action 30.30 It is, with out a doubt, reliable. The mechanism is so smooth that a small child could use it. It makes hardly any noise, only the faintest **snick** when being manipulated. It is the rifle I grab when I am about to shoot varmints. Mine has interchangeable levers. There is a two finger lever, open hook, four finger lever, single finger and a hook, all of which are good depending your needs. On mine, the stock is also removeable and allows a simi pistol grip, and, when combined with the right lever, turns this thing in to a fierce fire fight weapon. A strong man would be able to cock and fire the gun one handed. Mine also has a slightly shorter barrel than some. It is a custom piece. It sits on a rack above the bookshelf by the front door.
I own several shotguns, all of different shapes and sizes, including a fully automatic Winnie riot gun. A fully automatic 12g shotgun is an awesome weapon... But very few men could hold it. The model was later changed to a 20g, but the recoil was still monsterous. Eventually, it became a simi auto, and the model became famous because it was used in the shoot out with Bonnie and Clyde Barrow.
It is a sad day.

It is a sad day.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
