Henry is the new Marlin....
Umm, no. The tube fed is a perfectly fine, functional system, but it isn't a Marlin, and likely won't ever be. Not trying to disagree just to disagree, but if this was the case, people wouldn't still be actively talking about if Marlin's quality has improved yet. They would just let it fade into obscurity.
I feel like there is a danger to believing all you read on the internet. Certainly, Marlin has earned the reputation they have. But not every gun coming out is bad. As I've stated, it's to a point where I won't buy a new Marlin sight unseen, but if I inspect it first, I have no issue with it. I don't think they are to the point where absolutely everything coming out is garbage, so someone saying they refuse to buy a new Marlin is a bit overstated. But that's just my $.02
