Marlin 1895

I'd love to see Handi Rifles come back! I still have a lot of fun with my Handi's in AAC 300 Blackout and Cowboy Carbine in 45 Colt. When they were available I had added 12GA and .357 Mag barrels to the Cowboy Carbine.

A couple of things going on...

Freedom Arms wrecked Remington and then bought Marlin years ago and severe QA issues as they moved manufacture from North Haven, CT to Ilon, NY. I heard all the old school machinists were let go and it was moved to CNC. Early Remlins were awful but I heard they got better.

People think that a Biden presidency means no semi autos so leverguns will be the thing to get and the 1995 is famous from the movies.

In late 2019 I saw a $2K stainless model sold on GB. I believe all of these are JM stamped, pre-2010 models.

You can still get deals in LGS or pawn shops. A couple of years ago I saa a NOS JM stamped 1895SDG model selling for $800 and I saw a 1980s 336CS model selling for $500 this year.

I think Ruger will do a fine job with Marlin. Wish they'd bring back the Camp Carbine. Maybe they'll kill off the
Papoose.

What's up with these $2400 price tags on gunbroker. I thought maybe they weren't legit but they accumulate so many bids that this is a normal price for the SBL. Is this a price that would fly in the CG marketplace with current conditions?
