Okay, i am thinking of buying my son a marlin 1894 .44 magnum lever action carbine for his christmas! Would he be able to handle the recoil of the .44 magnum or even the .44 special? He is 12 years old, and has past gun experience, but has never actually owned his gun or shot anything this powerful. From what i have heard this gun/caliber doesnt put out much recoil when in a rifle, compared to when in it is a revolver. So can he handle it, recoil-wise that is? Also, will a 44 magnum or 44 special be enough to kill a deer (cleanly, of course...we dont want it to suffer.....)?
