Looking for my first full sized metal handgun. I’m stuck in between these two. The smith is quite a bit cheaper compared to the sig legion, but I’ve heard nothing but great reviews from both from YouTube and friends that own both. What’s y’all’s opinion? The s&w can be found for 750 and the sig closer to 1600.

I can get a guide gun for cheaper, but I like the looks of the classic better. Is there a right or wrong answer here?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I just turned 18 and am wanting to get my first lever gun, specifically a Marlin 1894. A lot of the 357/38 loads are made for revolvers. Can you run these thru a lever gun, or are there specific loads for rifles?
