I don't believe I can pay $2,700 USD for a 44 mag rifle.

picked up a Winchester 94 in 44 mag for about 200 buckeroos in the 90's. have more than 2 shots :)

Does it come with a gun bearer?

You can pick up a sturdy old Lee Enfield for $500 USD – $800 USD and I think the stopping power of a .303 is perfectly adequate for most needs unless you plan on hunting rhinos

I got mine for $60 USD back when they were reasonably priced.

The optional auxiliary grenade launcher costs extra… ;-)

Thanks

Henry makes a beautiful lever action Big Boy in 44mag for about a grand. Holds 10 rounds if memory serves

Thanks also…
