I am in the market for a used 30-30 as a start up gun for my niece. I have never owned a lever action, but I've been reading...
It will most likely be a family gun as her younger sisters and brother will probably (hopefully) get the bug as well.
With all the negativity surrounding newer Marlins, what gives? I really want a Win 94, but there are a lot more Marlins for sale around here. I'm not opposed to Marlin, just wondering when their reputation started taking a hit. What would be a good time frame for a reliable old Marlin?
