Thanks for the video. I've got one ordered for $440 shipped (GB auction). If the photos from the seller are accurate, mine won't have the threaded barrel or the G-Force logo on the right side of the receiver. If that is indeed the case, I'll be happy to not have the logo on the receiver, but would have liked the threaded barrel. My understanding is that only the color case variant has a steel receiver. Their other variants have aluminum receivers. That made an easy choice for me, and the color case looks great alongside the walnut stock. Ten rounds of 357 out a long barrel is nothing to sneeze at. Cheaper to shoot than 30-30 and almost as powerful.
@@oreGUNboy I will do that! I'm excited about it. I'll probably receive it by the end of the week. I can't wait to gaze upon the grain of the wood and start working that action.
@@MichaelJohnson-tw7dq thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed. You might be able to find some aftermarket wood stocks since it's a Winchester design copy
I have doubts on longevity.....Will it explode after 500 rounds.......I saw a lot of Turkish clones that start off good then break. Mainly the shotguns. My thinking is you usually get what you pay for. Prove me wrong.Ill keep watching.
Glad they thread the barrel,38spl and a can would be so fun. I’m looking at one of these for my dad for Christmas.im still kinda not sure this or the Rossi.
These are on par with a Rossi. Rossi is more expensive, but I've never had a malfunction. With the g force you saw the malfunction of failure to load. But that is the only one I've had. For the price you really can't beat the gforce
@ indeed,I’m just wondering about down the road,is the Gforce gonna hold up,are they gonna be around (I think it said there guns have 5 year warranty?) I know Rossi isn’t going anywhere. I don’t know I guess as long as the parts are available for the Gforce it’s not a big deal.thanks for the info and time with your response and review.
I don't think g force is going anywhere. They make some good stuff and it seems people are buying them. As far as the warranty, I don't think you have to worry about that and Ive heard they have good customer service if you run into an issue!
Fun gun and very nice review of an actual affordable lever gun. That case hardened receiver version is pretty 🤩 outside of the white G-Force logo. At that price I would be tempted to get one but in 44 Mag. I actually got 44 Mag dies for half price at Walmart in hopes of getting a 44 Mag revolver (which sadly hasn’t happened). Plus I now live in Ohio which is a straight wall state for deer 🦌. I still want a lever gun in 360 Buckhammer 🦌🔨, and I am hoping Henry will come out with their All Weather in 360 Buckhammer by Shot Show time.
I think it’s cool Gforce is paying attention and released this and the version with the Mlok hand gaurd,nice to have the option. Regular or space cowboy!
@@oreGUNboysince I commented, I’ve purchased the GForce .357 20 inch stainless. I also got the leather butt stock bullet holder and the leather rifle scarab. Great looking altogether. Will be taking it out shooting this weekend. Thanks again for your review brother 😎
@@oreGUNboy Yeah I don’t put much faith in our political system , this Republican vs Democrat shit is tearing us apart and that’s what they count on.. a divided country to keep them in power.
@@oreGUNboy I don’t get sucked into the party war that our elected officials count on.. this country’s problems run WAY deeper that Republican or Democrat. Both sides use fear mongering to keep us divided and make the sheeple feel like they need to vote for him to protect them from the other side. It’s all BS.
@@danieldepot4090 the tactical models do. But their traditional ones, as far as I can tell, don't. And from what I've seen on TH-cam, no one else with the traditional models have threaded barrels
Is the barrel drilled and tapped for an optic like the rossi? I just bought a 20" rossi and added a red dot (old eyes can't see irons well) and hitting clays at 100yards with 180gr bear loads. But color case hardening...it's beautiful
I kind of question your range there. One of the key safety rules is always be aware of where your shots are going. It looks like you're firing blindly into a forest there. It doesn't look like there's any kind of berm where those targets are. Stay safe, bro.
Target Suite a gun podcaster did an experiment with 16 inch and 20 inch barrels with Rossi .357 Mag. He found no velocity gain with the 20 inch over the 16 inch.
Put a red dot on that rifle to get more hits, i have as can't get it done with irons anymore. Would not be bothered much if Rossi/Braztec went out of business. Have bought one and one handgun in .357 mag from them. Revolver in for warranty repairs. Hope the Gforce turns out to be a reliable rifle.
@oreGUNboy I looked into a website that sells a picatinny rail section that replaces the rear sight for Winchester 1892 pattern guns with the top eject like this one. Not sure how well it would hold zero, but hopefully since it's held in the same way as the rear sight it will stay tight. Thanks for the 2 videos on this, so far the most comprehensive and one of the few that is reviewing the tactical model.
@@oreGUNboy This is my 3rd time trying to reply to you. TH-cam doesn't seem to want me to share. Look for Pearson's tacrail based out of Colorado Springs
I pulled mine apart and did some sanding, filing, polishing, and lubing which made the action buttery smooth, especially after 300ish rounds.
I'm thinking I should do the same. After performing an action job on my Ruger sp101. I'm thinking I should do the same to all my guns

I'm so jealous that you got a threaded barrel
Someone else told me they ordered through palmetto and also got a threaded barrel. Maybe palmetto is the place to get them
Nice rifle!
Thank you!!!

It has a dove tail slot with a screw. They have a tactical model that you can do a lot more with if you are looking to put optics on

@@ag563 did you get the tactical model for the first one??
@@oreGUNboy No, I got the regular one, wood stock & black receiver.
@@ag563 I'm tempted to get a tactical model just because of the price tag. It's hard to beat
I love your channel I'd watch a lot more of your videos if there was more footage of the targets being shot
@@irkallaLustre thank you so much. I'll bust out the second go pro and get more shots!
Can you mount a red dot on it ?
@@michaellai2062 there's a way to do it because there's a tactical model, but I haven't found the right product for the traditional version
What was the item number you purchased from palmetto when you bought this rifle?
@@justinb7320 SKU 51655157652. I did get it from palmetto but it looks like they are out of stock on this model
Nah.... I'll stick with my Henry. Also have a Rossi. No complaints on either.
Henry definitely has the smoothest action
I assume part of the reason it's so quiet is simply whatever mic you're using, but is it a quiet rifle would you say?
No. It's because of the mic. I also have 38 spec in the video, so that is also not as loud as the 357
Is the color case hardening real or is this just a painted finish. It looks painted.
@@TACNERD1 it's real
You can only color case harden iron or steel. The receiver on this rifle is aluminum. It is more than likely anodized.
@@biffgordon8468 I've been told the color case model is steel. But I haven't been able to confirm
Target Suite a gun podcaster did an experiment with 16 inch and 20 inch barrels with Rossi .357 Mag. He found no velocity gain with the 20 inch over the 16 inch.

No it's not.
I might look into this.

I think you get more fps with a 20 " than just 100. It really ramps it up
@@oreGUNboy Check out "Ballistics By The Inch” .. still 100 fps is more.. and more is more
If you mean 100 fps more than a pistol, it's more than that. Look it up.
@@garytrainer1690 I was comparing a 20 in barrel to a 16 in barrel… it’s about 25 fps per inch.
