Ruger has recently bought the Marlin line, and I expect there will be a great improvement in the product, henceforth. Charlie Old age and treachery will always overcome youth and enthusiasm.

Original JM Marlins are fine and they made a lot of them, so no reason to buy a Remlin.

Remington Marlins (Remlins) aren't even in the same league. Your picture is proof of that. Eh...wot?

Maybe Remington should be belly up and let other companies fix what they screwed up. An apprentice QC person should have easily picked up on that. I went through the USA military cannon factory machinist program back in the middle 80's.
