You are an evil man Alan, I have got a whole new direction to go experiment with on my lever gun now... and dang if a switch barrel short action don't sound like a good idea too. I have often thought of building a Delisle type carbine out of an old mauser action I have lying around....
hmmm, now for a really interesting question... is anyone familiar with how a 1911 extractor will sometimes hold a to short cartridge tight enough to make it work ? Do you supose a mauser claw would do the same ?
So I could in essence chamber my mauser mini plinker for oh like for instance a 45-308x1.5 and then shoot 45 win mag and 45 acp in it as well ?
One of these days I am going to either blow up or least be really fun to watch !
