Do you also for original Marlins?

Thanks!

Unfortunately I don’t make the TD assemblies for Marlins.

When I say that I make them identical to the original Winchesters, they are; all parts are interchangeable with the originals with correct patent dates, barrel addresses and inspector stamps.
As you can imagine that’s a significant investment in tooling and stamps.

While I generally make 4-6 Winchester barrels a month, I only get a call 2-3 times a year for Marlin barrels, just not enough to justify the investment.

V/R

Mike
