Back in the 90s I purchased 3 of the Marlin 25mg magnum smooth bores.I wanted one and could not locate any.I stopped at a shop on my way to Michigan and the owner had one on the rack,I expressed an interest.The owner said he had them for 5+ years and I was the only person ever to look twice at them.He was asking $189.for them,he joking said if I bought all 3 he'd sell them for his cost,$132. each.I own 3 of them.I love them for squirrels and other small critters.Very rarely encountered guns just starting to get pricey
