Anybody ever shoot a Whitney-Kennedy?

Don't have one.   Never touched one.   Seen only pictures.

They LOOK like a very interesting gun.  From what I have read they were well made, but have a hugely long lever throw.   Prices seem to be all over the map from reasonable to ridiculously expensive.   I know it would not be a very practical gun for our game, but it does look like something that could be of interest.

So, anyone have any experience with it?

I have an original WK in 44-40. Great rifle but a very long throw on the lever. I actually have two levers...The "S" lever and the Winchester type. Won't win any speed competitions, but high style points....   Pictures here
