Dantankerous Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Got the magazine at home I am waiting to read the article. I've handled several but not shot one. Very nice offering from Ruger/Marlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 I have handled 3, and got to fire one. Well worth the wait...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeaconKC Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 We've had a couple come through the shop. Beautiful guns, old John Marlin would be proud of them! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 (edited) If I didn't have my trusty Big 5 Marlin 1894 .44 mag that I got for under $400 when I first joined SASS, I'd buy one! They've been out for awhile and all reports have been good. Now the 336 is out and that one I'm tempted to buy.

My JM 1894 does not like 44 Specials at all. Curious whether the new ones do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my .44 mag cased cowboy loads, ran fine. My JM 1981 made '94, loves Specials and mags. Bought it new in 1982. Have no issues with SWC style bullets either. Widder taught me about 'carrier timing'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
