I am currently considering a NIB Marlin Model 1895 that was made in November of 2013 so For you guys that know much more about Marlin than I when did Remington retool the Marlin facility with the latest greatest CNC machinery? From what I can gather when Remington first got Marlin the old New Haven equiptment was mostly worn out then at some later date after many shoddy rifles were produced they got their ducks in a row and retooled with the latest CNC machinery and also tightened up QC considerably.....From what I have been reading these latest Marlins are some of the best rifles ever produced but what year did these better quality rifles start being produced?.........Thanks Hb
