The need is there, the market is ripe. What say you all? "Damn right it's loaded, it makes a lousy club" -JW

Kollitide, New Canaan, CT 06840 He's a big wig with Cerebus and running for the NRA BOD. Marlin has his mini-bio on their web site. I had an address from a campaign contribution tax form, but Google won't give it up today?? "Damn right it's loaded, it makes a lousy club" -JW

I'd really like a run of the mountie or shorter barrel trapper model especially - if they could offer those in stainless that would also be very very good, IMHO. Of course, I'd also want them to go back to the hammer style of the 60s and remove the hammer-block safety as well, but that probably is never going to happen...

I told him he needs to plant this bug in Marlins ear. They need to come out and compete with henry as they are basically the only game in town for smaller lever rimfires. He said that they had actually been discussing this and when I told him of the interest in TDS or a carbine with a straight stock on the campfire he was interested. He said for Marlin to do this, they would need a larger distributor to order a lot of say 500+ carbines. he said MSRP would be crowding 600.00. Unlike many massed produced guns, he said the 39's are still hand fit= higher production costs. What say you all? would any of you add your name to a list of interested buyers? If enough of us got on, maybe we could swing a group buyer discount. It may be worth a shot. Lets start a couple lists, say one for a blued/walnut 39 Trapper/TDS and the other for a SS/ Walnut TDS.
