Don’t see a whole lot of these used in a sass match.

There is just one of many, many more. All their BP long guns.

The roughly 20,000 active sass shooters barely keep SASS afloat. Much less any major firearm manufacturer/importer. 

I meant that making a 9mm rifle is reaching out to the non cowboy crowd like on here. There are plenty of shooters that don’t shoot cowboy but have old west type guns I know quite a few! Those are the ones interested in a 9mm lever action rifle. That was my point I understand what you’re saying though.

I got one of these...

It is currently being "customized."   It's getting conventional sights, the forestock is being replaced with a standard size one instead of the fat one it does have, the stock is being cut to be just a pistol grip, and the lever loop is being enlarged.   In otther words, it'll be what the Mare's Leg should have been. 

Won't be SASS Legal, but it'll be FUN.

I'll also have a non cut shoulderstock to use it as a short rifle if I want to.   Not crazy about the muzzle cap, but not much I can do about that.

The lever movement may be shorter than current rules allow, shorter carrier block,  9mm is a rather short round.

The lever has been plenty of movement to be legal. It actually could be short stroked more.  The carrier is pretty good. Could use a diet.  It does have a cool Taylor's emblem already carved in it

At least a 40 S&W would be a smokeless 38-40 caliber bullet.

Are they offering a "SASS-APPROVED" version without the threaded barrel??

As of a few weeks ago when I talked to Kerri,no but she is getting the paperwork ready to submit to sass about it.
