I have been asked by AZsparrow to take over as the Captain of "Team Shotgun" here at Marlin Owners. Membership will is open to all Marlin Shotgun owners, all other shotgun owners and shotgun lovers.

Nobody ever asks to "Ride Rifle", they all want to "Ride Shotgun".

Welcome the Marlin Shotgunners!

Mike

Would love to join this team. Will start with an old one. A Spencer, 1882 pump.



The first successful commercial pump, 16 years prior to the Winchester '98. Spencer sold out to Bannerman of NY a few years later. I still shoot skeet with low brass with this one, on occasion.

Mike,

Add me when you get a chance. Had a Goose gun back in my high school and college days. Wish I still did but some other shiny object caught my eye and it got traded. Have a few scatter guns left though.

Welcome to Team Shotgun SPCTR. You are member #110. Yours is the most impressive collection of shotguns listed since I took over as Captain! Have you ever taken a picture of that herd? That would be a sight to see. You might need a macro lens though. :top:

Any chance I could get in on the fun? I am the proud owner of a .410 Lever gun in stainless!
