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:

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.

I held the big one. In the trapper 16.5” version. Didn’t like all the crap they put on it.
