Home Forums Lever Action Central Marlin 336 Lever Actions Ruglin's ..huh?

At the risk of being roasted on here I just want to say a Marlin built by Remington or Ruger is not a Marlin.
It is a copy of a Marlin.
It is not bad thing I guess. Who doesn’t like a nice lever rifle. They might be better or worse than a Marlin, but they will never be a Marlin made in North Haven Ct.
I know, I’m an old fuddy-duddy. But facts are facts. Real Marlins are out there for purchase. Here’s one I’ve had for a while. 1895 .45-70. Good rifle.
