Was at local GS today just looking for some more bullets to reload with. (I had run out and not wanting to wait for an mail order).. Got what I needed and was just looking at some of those real purtty new guns in the rack. Saw a few of those new looking lever actions sitting there, asked to see one, the young man picked it up and cycled the action just to make sure it was unloaded. Well that was it.... action locked up right there..... locked in the open position... two others tried, Oh well......... I said I see that Remington still has not got it right yet.... I then was told it was not a remington but an marlin.... Just walked off...... Glad I got 4 of the JM ones...... Alvan







That's what ticks me off the most! You call it a Remington and they turn around and try to correct you. We need to start handing out business cards with the website on it when we run into these idiots. A type of public service announcement. I ran into 3 people, in the same day, that did the same thing, "its a Marlin"! Only one asked what the difference was.
