POTD: The Tombstone - Suppressed 9mm Lever Gun
TFB has been running our very special Photo Of The Day for years, sharing great photos from around the world and the world of firearms. Sometimes the selected pictures involve a lot of action and shooting, sometimes there’s another reason behind the choice. Like today, because when I see images like this, I get really interested in buying another rifle.
I mean, I can hear the silence when I shoot those heavy subsonics, hitting the steel targets out there and I think you can do the same?
The Tombstone, made by Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF-USA), is a 9mm magazine-fed lever-action. Some say they have seen prettier firearms, but I think it’s great to see modern versions of lever-action rifles. There aren’t many that fire from detachable magazines either.
What do you think about The Tombstone? Do you like this configuration like me, or would you shop elsewhere?

A very expensive range toy.
This makes no sense. Why are we putting all the modern embellishments on a 150 year old operating system? I find it very hard to believe that the Mossad and CIA are using lever action weapons in the field. Why wouldn't you just put your silencer and red dot on a select fire MP5 and call it a day. You can still fire single shot, but switch to FA in a firefight. Lever action is nostalgic, but really, really slow (in comparison to semi-auto) and obsolete.
