Hello,
Been wanting to get a Marlin, Henry lever gun in 45-70, and the Henry looks great, but the Henry loads from the tube and costs upwards of $300.00 more.
However, I have heard the Marlin lever guns quality went down the tubes, but is now back where it should be.
So my 1st question, Is Marlin lever guns back to being a quality rifle again.
2nd question, if they had quality issues, does anyone know the serial number range to avoid, or plant of manufacture ect ?
I see some at gun shows and would like to know if there are any paticular ones to avoid.
Thanks
