Nope.

That's homely as hell.

If you want a manually operated repeater shotgun, the pump is just fine.

Sticking a "tactical" label on it to try and sell it?

I'd have my concerns about it given my experiences with lever action shotguns as it is (old original turn of the last century winchesters).

A new one that retails for $399? Nope. I expect extraction issues, and feeding problems.

A lever rifle is neat, but I am not impressed.

I like the birds head stock. The pump is king, but I do love a lever action.

1887 Chiappa or winchester shotgun. https://youtu.be/47nWth0kRS8 shown here with a drop 2 modification on the action because you are only allowed 2 rounds in competition to keep it even for a double barrel shotgun. It will hold 4+1. I will take the old one any day.... especially an original winchester in 10 gauge.
