[Broc]

That's just disgusting. Don't say that! I can just imagine their phoenix across a brand new stainless steel 1895SBL as we speak.

I love that their first caliber will be the 45/70.

148 year old cartridge and still going strong. Maybe stronger than ever.

They’re sweet. I’ll never sell my 357 mag. Crazy to see the prices on GB. Great combo with the DW revolver. View attachment 535874

Where is the SxS shotgun?

I've got a shiny stainless steel mossberg 500 pump if that counts?

It does.

Wat?

minus 10 points for not fuzzing it out.

I subjectively claim that teh joke is even more subtle than that.

Spoiler

I went back and surreptitiously unfuzzed
the post that @Dennis in MA was bitching about.

He either hasn't noticed it,
or hasn't reacted yet because he's at the eye doctor's right now...

You know what really drives me crazy??

Spoiler

People that post non-important information in a blurry spoiler section. 9 times out of 10 I don't even bother clicking anymore.

I don't know, but what I do know is that it will be a short trip.

Let me tell you, if you get a Uberti (Taylor, Cimmarron) you will not regret it. A little heavier than the 1895s but women will throw themselves at you screaming “put a baby in me!” Every time you pull it out at the range.

I dont know if they made changes due to supply and COVID, but a year or two ago Taylor had all sorts of packages, they would tune actions, install short stroke kits ...

Now it seems like they don't offer any of that anymore.

I believe Cimarron was similar.

Will the Ruger name be stamped on the firearm somewhere on the rifle?

Christopher J. Killoy -- President and Chief Executive Officer


No, it won't be. We're going to maintain the Marlin brand. We're very proud of the Marlin brand and its history. We've got a couple of things. I think Marlin collectors will be very excited about as far as how we can figure the serial number, some minor changes that we think collectors will enjoy seeing. But maintaining that Marlin legacy and the great things about Marlin, particularly the centerfire lever-action guns with some what we think are some great enhancements. So more to come on that, but we're very excited about it. We've got a good team of operations and product and marketing folks working on that rollout, and I think we're going to have fun with.

.45-70 lever actions at decent prices are a thing of the past and really with the 4 round capacity of the tube the .45-70 is not practical for anything outside of hunting and entertainment. For that a single shot will do.

Would love one of these to go along with my 460VXR

Model 90 - 460 S&W - Big Horn Armory

Honoring the long tradition of great American sporting rifles, the new Model 90s provide hunters with pride in ownership, and a powerful advantage afield

You'll be sorry for not purchasing one when the Chinese accidentally release a genitally modified T-Rex.

I don't need a .45-70 for that, all I need is to find two Black guys to go to the Chinese T-Rex's corner store at the same time. When that happens White guys become almost invisible.

nice. Ill be looking when they release their .30-.30 rifles again. Ill be looking to get one of those. Im also assuming the hard time i have to find 10 round model 795 magazines is due to their situation. Hopefully they start pumping those out as well. Id like to get a few more mags for my ,22, otherwise its on to buying a 10/22.

Henry puts some damn nice wood on those single shots. For half the price of a lever, its tough not to buy one. I've been thinking of one in 350 legend or 45-70.

Here's a pretty good evaluation of this new rifle. Looks and performs very good. He does find a small problem which he identified to Ruger for their action. Not sure how many of us would have caught it.
