Tactical Lever Action

So I'm starting to go down the rabbit hole on building out a tactical lever action. Starting with an 1854 S&W 16.3" barrel, and it just looks like you can build out something super cool with Ranger Point Precision parts. Im going down the 357/38 path so I can shoot it without taking out a small loan, but be cool to see these in 300 AAC as well.

Love to hear from the experts messing around with these things. When I search there doesn't seem to be a thread - hoping to see some good ideas, and if anyone has built out theirs, let's see your tactical lever action!
 
Milled the scope base on my 1884P so it would clear a 2.5-8x32 scope without having to buy taller rings. Now it's custom and tactical.

I have the Marlin Trapper in 45-70 all ready to go, with all the Ranger Point parts, and all of it is still sitting in boxes. *Checks order emails* Oh not bad, it’s only been sitting since 2022, haha!!

If I were doing it right now, I’d just get a Marlin Dark and be done with it.

I’m hoping your build inspires me to finish mine!!
