We all during our life time aquire a rifle for sentimental reasons. I lost a good friend (aka 'Slim Chance') at this time 15 years ago, and I managed to buy his prized '92 Winchester that was his pride and joy, from his estate.

Completely rebuilt to 44 Special, bore lined, full magazine that holds 14 and color case hardened action and lever. Truly, a one of a kind.

Beautiful!
I fantasize about having a couple of my guns case color hardened. Maybe one day...

I see a lot of merit in a 44 spl or 38 spl. Your friend had good taste in firearms.
