Has it improved. I am thinking I need a 357 magnum or 44 mag. Or is the quality hit or miss. My other options would be Henry or plunk down the cash for a Winchester 92.
the older 44's are more common & less $$ than the 357's
but even the models with x/bolt safety..post 1983 are good ones too
The troublesome years from my understanding were from 2010-2014 (ish)
I have enough of the real Marlins not to worry about buying a RemLin...
I'd buy a Henry long before the RemLin......they care about their rifles & C/S
here's an older one of my 44's
