They are trying to be sneaky about this. About 2 weeks ago people found out and they lost over a billion dollars in clientelle and released a statement saying it was a error....then they snuck it into the new user agreements. Dirty deeds

357 mag only?
Why would a 357 mag levergun not be compatible with 38s? I was at Cabelas and looked at an Uberti 92 Repro that said "357 mag only" on the barrel. Is the cartridge length?

Re: speaking of canoes
I hooked a huge channel catfish at Tygart Lake (here in WV). The lake is notorious for monster cats. My buddy and I were in a 12' aluminum canoe and that danged cat drug us well over 300 yards before he broke the line. We still talk about it.
