new marlins
Does any know if Remington is producing Marlins (that means actually making and selling), or is the production line still shut down for "training and qc restructing".
Re: new marlins
i think i bought my REM-Marlin in April of theis year...but as you mention, my corner LGS says he hasn't seen any in awhile either...i would like to get a 1894C in .357, but might just buy a Rossi... :)

Re: new marlins
Psssssstttt, here's a rumor I've just started ..... 'er heard.
The new Marlins are made in Norinco's Brazilian factory just across the street from the Rossi factory. Last I heard they raided Rossi's trash dump for parts every night.

Re: new marlins
The local gun stores are rife with new, and used RemLins....no one wants them, it seems.....

Re: new marlins
i will take a rossi over a remlin anytime, if they they did raid the dumpster for parts it would be a better rifle.
Re: new marlins
wow, this is sounding pretty harsh.
I'm glad I bought my Marlin in 2002.
When I moved to a rifle county in 02, my first goal was to buy a 30-30 levergun - and I was sure I wanted a winchester - until I went to several gun shops and looked at several marlins and winchesters and realized that I liked the marlins more - they seemed way more solid and tight and smooth - so I bought one and it has been an awesome gun. Its really really really sad to see something like this happen to good guns.
