I've been buying Marlins since 1982. All but two have been used. I have a 1894CL in 32-20 that is the nicest ! I have a 1894 CB (Cowboy) is 45 Colt, but only fair. Compare the 1950's and 60's guns to the 1990's guns and then comparing them to the Remington guns, you can see that "Bean Counters" are ruining America!

Nobody knows how to do an action job on the Old guns (because they were never needed), and the newest are almost beyond fixing!
