    Love my 45-70, and put a Primary Arms 3x Prism on it. I've got a Maple Ridge brake sitting here, but, honestly, I'm not sure it needs it, and I really don't want to add the extra length to it...it's pretty much perfect as it is.

    Sure as heck didn't pay $1500 for it either

    I really hope Ruger can get the 1895 back into production soon, and with the same quality of wood that shows up on their #1s. I've passed over far too many recent 1895s that had furniture just barely a notch above 'beaver barf'. I guess Marlin recognized this too, and broke out the black paint...

    My 1895 is rusted missing screws and was stored for over 50 years and it shot better and smoother then the dark did... keep in mind this is not a real marlin it’s a trash Remington made by trash Americans who don’t care about anything but money for there failing company

    Ok boomer
    Prices including shipping DOES NOT include full insurance. Once package is in carrier's hands, it is not my responsibility anymore.

    I think we get it that you do not like the newer marlin. You made your point.
    What?

    Spend the extra dough and get a Chiappa/Taylors.
