That is a pretty 39, you do the colour case yourself?

Another UK based lever gun fan here. Don’t think any of that tactical shit is gonna make it any better, .45-70 guide gun doesn’t really warrant too much extra junk.
I'd love to have one of these. This is a far as I'd go for the tacticool look.
The metal finishing on both Marlins was done by Glenrock Blue in WY when Phil was owner. I fitted and finished the wood sans checkering.
Joker in Full Metal Jacket.
You are reading my mind. Subsonic 38 special with a can and a red dot, and I could wear some deer out around here.
Sooo......SBR'd lever gun to like 10.5 with a Aimpoint on a Riser, PEQ15 on a rail and a suppressor in 30-30 shooting 175g subs?
I killed a 6 square black bear with my Marlin guide gun 45-70. Then I did the costa crouch and flag the Asian crowd with my gun thing.
Well the first part is true anyway

IDGAF what anyone thinks, tactical lever guns are fucking hawt.
I believe that is the idea!
Id hand load some 250 hard cast lead.
3 shot groups don't mean much... unless you shoot them with a stupid 2X scout scope.

Only I bleached the wood to make it lighter, when I should have painted it black. I'm not tactical enough.
(for the record, that sling is never on there, and that was the one and only time that shell cuff was on the gun. So not tactical.)
I am railed up though. Operate mofo!

I could have gone my whole life not seeing that, but no, you had to make aware. I don't feel well now....
The future is now old man
I sold one like that, but it was quite a bit older, 1903 I believe been a bit.
A little bit country; a little bit rock and roll.
I will tell you this a 444 marlin drops a hog. Have rails on mine for night vision, steiner SPIR, DBAL D2, PVS 30. Suppressed it is remarkably quiet.
The real Marlins before Remington bought them and Remingtoned them are quite accurate with the micro groove barrels.
Rumor is that Remington bought worn out tooling when they bought Marlin…
That's true. Remington then they tried to refresh that tooling without understanding how the guns actually fit together, which promptly make quality worse. It's like every bad stereotype of modern American management.
There have been some good stories about the Ruger acquisition, including the cover story in a recently issue of American Rifleman. After determining that there was a business case to be made for purchasing the brand, the next step Ruger took was to basically start over with creating proper drawings and performing the engineering necessary (such as tolerance stacks and establishing proper GD&T for critical dimensions) to ensure that the guns can be manufactured without excessive hand-fitting. You know, really sophisticated stuff by 1850 standards. Time will tell, but it certainly appears that they did the job correctly.
I do like lever guns for hunting and fun but a tacticool lever is beyond fking gay. What's next, men marrying men?
with costa, i wouldnt be surprised. it doesnt get any more flamboyant than that little photo shoot.
Fucking Gay!!!
I'm reviving this thread because fuck it... I like this new trend and want one of these. So... Henry vs Marlin for a .45-70?
Neither. You need a Creedmoor if you're trying to maximize gayness.

Leave ‘em like they were supposed to be.
Great suppressor hosts! My X-Model .30-30 is surprisingly quiet with Fed. Power-Shok 170 gr. and YHM Phantom. I have a .45-70, too, but haven't shot it yet. Waiting for the can to get out of jail. I'll try some factory ammo, but planning on loading some Hornady Sub-X for it.
That looks photoshopped (odd)? And the scope doesn't look original.

Don't be a gay. See if a shop can copycat the original Maxim suppressor and give you a nice classic restorod if you wanna put a can on it. @buffalowinter or @VJJPunisher might even be up for the challenge..??
