444P was only made for a couple years. I think by the time Marlin was switching to unported Guide Guns, they had quit making the Outfitter. You could get a regular 444 and chop the barrel back to 18" fairly cheaply, if you like the look.

I have an Outfitter and swapped the straight buttstock for a pistol grip set. My favorite rifle (right now!)
