Less noise/recoil, and I did it as the gun had been a truck gun and the crown was knackered. All of my other guns are moderated and use the same mod so it seemed like the thing to do. You also don't see lever guns with mods very often so I figured id be different.

I can just use the irons over the top of a Jet Z mod, but did need to have a new fore sight base soldered on behind the thread.

I'm turning mine into a tactical lever action, so it'll have black rubberised stock and fore end, scout rail and red dot sight and the sound with a mod and subs is very cool. Check out Youtube

Sound and looking cool

Well that's very 'Black Rifle'
Interesting look

Can't say I like it but each to their own.
