Ruger announces plans for new Marlins

[Nosferatu]

1894, 10mm, 16" threaded barrel. Holy grail.

Ruger, are you listening?

460 S&W would be uber cool too, although I'm pretty close to pulling the trigger on a Big Horn Model 90 in .460.

 

[Nosferatu]

Still hoping they'll make one in .480 Ruger or .500 S&W Magnum.

I'm all for that, plus 460 S&W.

444 Marlin needs to come back as well.

 

[RVTECH]

at least they could have the decency to sell the rights to another manufacturer.

Well, reality being what it is, it is still just a 10-22 with an M1 carbine style stock and an 18" barrel so I doubt it's anything they have the 'rights' to.

Heck any Mfg. of a SA .22 could make one if they wanted.

Ruger already makes a neo M1 carbine version of the 10/22.

They need to get it right with the first Ruger-Marlins that are released, regardless of caliber or model. At this point in time, their first offerings will set expectations for all that follows. Ramping up production takes time and starting with a heavy hitter like 45-70 means they might actually be able to keep up with initial demand. Not even possible if their first offerings were in .357 or .44mag.

Only 10/22 that I own and no interest in owning another.

From interview in the OP, they mentioned .444 Marlin is coming back.

Yep, I was reinforcing the point. I would take that over a 45-70 (even though I have an 1895GBL in 45-70).

Camp Carbine. otherwise...

Marlin marauder with 14" factory bbl.

That's right, I want at least one major gun manufacturer to start offering factory SBR lever guns.

Whatever they build...
Quality is a must.
Marlin and quality were a ways apart for a while....enough to cause a breach of trust.

I would love to see a line of some of Marlin's classic lever guns...
And a quality build of the Camp Carbine.

I'd be on that, but a 10" or 12" would be more better.

 

[Knobgoblin]

Basically this idea. Straight stock, saddle ring, SBR.

This is an antique winnie , 12" probably.

That would be quite corking indeed. I had to build my own.

I have a friend who has an original, early Winchester '94 with a 14" barrel in .30-30.

Reality being what it is a 16" is a very handy length and no stamp required. (Having owned one).

Schawing!

I'm waiting on the Henry Mares Leg in .44 mag to hit the post-covid madness shelves again. I plan to send it to grumpys to get threaded, then SBR it.

A Marlin version would be sweet too.

I have a 16" saddle ring win94 trapper in 30-30 and I love it.
I got a screamin deal on a glenfield Texan and immediately realized that a slightly shorter Marlin was the thing I really wanted.
Just never see em.

Will you adopt me?

I 'Had' a 16" Trapper in .357 and it had the 'infamous' cycling issue and after a lot of work I still couldn't get it to cycle properly (got it better but not completely) and wound up selling it for a very nice price after I bought a Henry.

You think the new RugLins will finally solve the "Marlin Jam"?

Lets hope they do.

I know they HAD an issue with it as well but I never owned one so no experience with it personally.

Cuss Henry if anyone wants but it cycles .357 (and .38) like butter.
