Marlin 39A for me. Why, 1) because I own two, and 2) the drop at the comb on the Henry (Golden Boy) does not allow for anywhere near a decent check rest. I found myself craning my neck to get a proper sight picture. (The 'standard', non-Golden boy version, does have a stock that has a little less drop.)


I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.
