MARLIN COWBOY MODEL PRODUCTION
I know the .44 and 45 are being or have been made this year. The wedsite also lists 357. Will it happen, and when for those in the know? This rifle and caliber combination is in high demand in cowboy action.

Re: MARLIN COWBOY MODEL PRODUCTION
I just see the 1894 CB listed in .45 colt and .44 mag on their website. .357 to my knowledge is not in production yet. I think they still have to work out the kinks of the .357 model. Still, it would be nice for them to hurry the hell up and make it!

List price over $1k it better be ******* perfect.
I know a whole lot about very little and nothing about a whole lot.

Re: MARLIN COWBOY MODEL PRODUCTION
Hmmmm ...
My Marlin made 1894 Cowboy 45 Colt was made in 2005. According to something I read when I was researching it, it was specially tuned by the factory for competition. When I had it apart for cleaning and inspection I found the areas that need attention to prevent the "Dreaded Marlin Jam" had indeed been worked on.
I'm wondering if Remington has addressed this or if they will be prone to the "D.M.J."?
The pics sure make them look purty though.

Re: MARLIN COWBOY MODEL PRODUCTION
no reason to get upset Joe, just showing a person that was looking for a Remlin that a place that makes a living working on marlins won't work on the new ones because of heat treat issues. If you are only putting 50 to 100 rounds a year probably wont be a problem, but 1000 or more would.

Re: MARLIN COWBOY MODEL PRODUCTION
When I do shoot, I'll put more through any given gun in a single outing, than most people do in 5 years. Many times more than most people do in a lifetime. So I'm glad you posted that. Information is always good.sac wrote: ↑Wed Mar 29, 2017 4:55 pm no reason to get upset Joe, just showing a person that was looking for a Remlin that a place that makes a living working on marlins won't work on the new ones because of heat treat issues.
