98Z5V Posted February 20, 2020 Report Share Posted February 20, 2020 The new Marlin Dark Series is pretty damn good looking. a 30/30 Dark came into the local gunshop - and left quick. I kinda like these: Check 'em out: https://www.marlinfirearms.com/lever-action/model-336/model-336-dark-series Here's the Big One... https://www.marlinfirearms.com/lever-action/model-1895-big-bore/model-1895-dark-series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbas4570 Posted February 20, 2020 Report Share Posted February 20, 2020 They have done a fairly good job of running with ideas that have been around for years now. There isn't a whole lot new here, but there are many things put together in one place for purchase without going the custom route.....with a much lesser price than the custom work prices. That said, I would like to have one. Have owned 1895's for years, modified one to have a 16" barrel and scout rail.....fun toy. Not great as a hunting rifle, but that is due to the Marlin factory barrels (from that particular era) having a quirk that doesn't help in the accuracy department.

DNP Posted February 20, 2020 Report Share Posted February 20, 2020 I held the big one. In the trapper 16.5” version. Didn’t like all the crap they put on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
