The POF-USA Tombstone 9mm is an extreme example, but it’s what you might call the logical conclusion of a much larger trend. It’s hard to say whether there’s a renewed interest in lever guns or the interest never really faded in the first place, but tricked-out, tactical, or otherwise modern models are new—and they appear to be here to stay.
