if you can suppress BL-22, I'm keen.

Couldn't really do it as removing the mag tube to reload would interfere with the suppressor.

Interesting idea tho. When you think about it you could set up a slide spring instead of extending out the end. So it'd have a slot and push bar. It'd be different for sure.

Yea I guess like Henry..mmmmmm something to think on.

So pardon my ignorance: but did you shorten the tubular mag & hide it under the forend or is it used now as a single shot? ( No photo to show whats happened to the tubular mag) Ive been thinking about this for say a marlin 45/70 with a normal mag capacity of 5-6? If you go noisey with the 45/70 & super loads : 3-4 shots should sort out the animals & shoulder 95% of time . The rest of the mag capacity is either not needed or adds to the carry if you have it full. Of course then; extra length of " unneeded " mag makes a supresser length out the front of the lever action a pain which almosts nullifys the reason of having a fast pointing leveraction in the 1st place.

on this 94 I shorted the mag tube to 4 rounds(plenty enough) safer for the dogs hearing

Yes I cut down the tube mag as well

its a 30 second job to unscrew a suppressor...reload mag,put suppressor back on..so 2 minutes total Vs ONE MINUTE...
it certainly would stop mag innertube spring from jumping out n being lost LOL.
