I was at my LGS for other stuff on the weekend but just for fun had a handle of the Adler (OMG RAPID FIRE )
Gotta say, cycling the action was rough. A bit clunky and difference resistance at different points. Unpleasant on the fingers to say the least, wouldn't want to be doing it continually.
I'm not singling out the Adler here or knocking it, it just happens to be the brand I handled. And don't think anything was wrong with the one I handled.
Do they smooth out though? Lever actions in general I mean. Basically with how if felt I'd never want one based on that so just wondering.
