As soon as dealers start putting them on Gunbrokers they will sell for double msrp for at about a year, maybe more. Thats my prediction.
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Those Springfield SA-35's are still selling for 200-300 dollars over MSRP and when they first came out folks were paying up to $600 over the $699 MSRP, and that's for a pistol with a niche market demand. Shame, that. I've sold off a lot of different caliber rifles recently along with the reloading dies and components but have kept my .30-30 dies and components even though I don't currently have one. Would love to see a straight grip 336 or even better a Sporting Carbine style but that's going to be a while, if ever.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

Nope, I’m talking about the habit they have of randomly locking up with no explanation. Never heard of that and currently own over 20 marlins from 1892s,1893s,1894s,1895s,1897`s,39`s ,1936`s,36s and , 336s The only Marlin Jams I have seen are from dipsticks short stroking them. Rossi`s are ok if you can`t afford a Marlin.Other than that they are crap.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience

I don’t know where I could fit a new rifle/cartridge into with levers. But a 348 Win might do nicely. Others that I’d like to see perhaps a 35 Win, 33 Win, or 303 Savage. Or how about a 348-358, that is a 348 necked up to 358?
Luckily I pretty much have the Marlins I need, except I’m looking at a…
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

I'd take a 25/35, but that will never happen. You need at least 4 different cartridges throwing 400grs of lead to kill a 125 pound deer.

They've posted a pic with their staff, all in masks, holding the first manufactured one a month or so ago. I think it was a laminate stainless 45/70. Now is a good time to sell your old marlin, my lgs just got this one in, curious what it will end up at https://www.gunbroker.com/item/918231061

[/quote] Doesn't matter how good their engineers are when their execution and quality control absolutely sucks. I've seen more non functional abortions come out of Ruger boxes than any other major American firearm manufacturer. If anybody can fugg up a Marlin, it's Ruger.
Blackheart, I'm not sure what your issue is with Ruger, but if you don't like them, don't buy them. Simple as that. I've seen some real issues with every one of them at one time or another. They produce a hell of a lot of guns for no more issues than they've got. I don't know what your investment is in trying to talk someone else into whether or not they buy one. I've had a couple of hundred Rugers over the years and been very pleased with them.

I'm going by how many New Rugers we had brought back by unhappy customers at the gunshop and how many I've personally bought that needed to be sent back because they were non functional out of the box. I'll stand by my previous statement..

Now is a good time to sell your old marlin, my lgs just got this one in, curious what it will end up at https://www.gunbroker.com/item/918231061. I'm very tempted to list mine. Same rifle, new in the box. I paid $900 for it roughly 2 years ago.

I'm thinking that a336 has a good bit more parts than a #1. Does that mean $1000 336 rifles.
