Hope you got a good price on the Marlin, like hen's teeth around here. Went the BO route cause I couldn't find a 357 M for anything decent. I keep kicking myself (out of the store) when I see the #1 in 357, probably the only single shot I'd ever have. Actually never handled one, just 'neat' - are they pretty heavy? Or maybe a pedersoli? Max would even be mo-better.

Been looking for a "94" marlin for a long time. Get sticker shock that lasts a few months, then start over.

Read Bellms tc's news letters 15ish years back.
Big max. Proponent.
He was always giving me the fever.

Between Ben, Brad, and Waco I didn't have a chance.
Then a 1981 94 c showed herself on gb. "Unfired"
It's as they described. "New"
haven't taken it apart yet. Did pick up a .315 dia. Rod to do a pound cast
I only have .357156, noe. 432 wc , 311 and a rcbs Keith molds
So that's a good reason to get another right.
I figured a hair dryer on low will help get the decal off. 0622191448.jpg
