I think the known issues are taken care of. If you have any issues or know of another member who is having issues, PM daytime dave. As we head towards the holidays, hunt with your Henry.

Like I said, they make this version also.

It's pretty darn spiffy.

Like Al said, it's just not a traditional levergun, reminds me of the Henry with to much drop in that rear stock with that same dull finish as the bbs. Which I don't really care for either.

Yes, it does look more like a Henry than a Marlin. If I was in the market for another lever action, I would probably look close at a Marlin. Yet, the prices are more than I want to pay for a new one. I am not looking for collectibles, just something that will go BANG, when I pull the trigger.

Handled the Marlin today at a LGS, $1,249.99. I put it back, brass Henry in both 45-70 and 30-30 with side gates and the higher end engraved walnut were $250 less.

Thats way over priced for a Marlin they can be had for right around 1k. That gun shop is proud of them.

1894, less than 1K. Yet, still more than I am willing to pay:
