My JM 1895 has shot many groups between .5"-1" @ 100yds. But ...... the Ruger 1895 has my interest. If I can find one as MSRP I'll grab it. If I'm happy with it I'll sell my JM. Collectors pay silly money for a JM in good shape.

Street price is whatever a dealer who you know and trust can get it for. Very few guns are worth what gougers charge for them. Shop around with ones you trust. They will get you the best deal possible.

saw a dealer cost listed price of $950. But sadly some dealers get better prices than others depending upon their distributor and volume of sales.

You can't gouge on a nonessential item,
The market price is what the market will bear.
So a dealer who knows he can sell something for X should take less than X?
Remember that next time you have something for sale.

Several have sold in the last month for $1700-$1900 on Gunbroker as well.


price will continue to drop as supply increases and those that really thought there was a value in paying 2-3x MSRP drop out or already have theirs. Once the supply gets built up to the point that distributors can have availability to any ordering dealer, the Gunbroker sales will go flat.

This model was going nuts on Gunbroker for the past 2+ years as the Remlin version........mainly because of the craze of having a gun from Jurassic World.

I really don't expect the other new release Ruger Marlins to be this crazy. Like everything, people will pay a premium to have the first ones available, but after that, the bubble will quickly burst, as long as Ruger keeps supply steady.

It’s interesting to me that Ruger is keeping the price elevated.

Their other types of fire arms seem more economically priced.

Waited 4 months but bought mine for $1149, very well made and can’t wait until a 336, 35 rem is released. There’s a bit more in putting a lever gun together than a bolt gun, plus raw materials are up and they have a large investment in Marlin brand and a new factory, really not surprised

Good quality is always going to cost. The MSRP is comparable to Henrys that aren’t IMO, as nice. Gougers (or good capitalists, if you prefer) are pricing them at the current street prices. Can’t blame Ruger for that in any way.

Have you seen what a new Blackhawk is selling for? I think Ruger pulled smiths off the pistol line and put them on the Marlin line.

Ruger seems to be making these new lever rifles mighty nice. And keeping the "Marlin" name on the recoil pad is a smart move. Some buyers want to see that I suppose. In the end, it's a Ruger, which certainly isn't a bad thing.

Am waiting for the 1895GS and the Cowboy.

Gives me three generations of each.


Don't ask me about my military service or heroic acts...most of it is untrue.

The one thing Ruger can do, to vastly improve a Marlin, is recreate the 1894 in 44 Magnum with a 1:20 barrel. If they can accomplish this in blue & walnut, I'll bite.

I find it distasteful Ruger chose to keep checkered stocks from the Remington days and I don't need or want a threaded barrel. It would be nice to have options.
