I sold my first year Marlin Guide 45-70 after I bought my Browning M71 Carbine. Just totally different pieces IMO with the latter winning for me.
Once I ever acquire a 71 im sure my 1895gs will sit in the safe more. I have 4 45/70's and love them all but I really want a 71. The money just gets allocated to other life needs at the moment. Ive got 100 new 348 brass and when/if Hornady makes some ammo I will stock up. I want the Browning carbine as well. Already have a Williams peep for one and hopefully draw a speedgoat tag next year and put it to the test
