I know a couple of engineers and workers from the original Marlin. Much of their stuff had to be hand fitted because the equipment was flat worn out. Remington put a guy in charge that came from the faucet industry. Most of the Marlin guys bailed.
Remington has made good products the last few years, all new equipment and techniques. Why they didn’t fix the 94’s lifter snail cam jam flaw is beyond me. They have made some great variants and got the 444 back up and running.
I do think Ruger taking them over is a great move. I think Ruger will reintroduce the 308 and 338 but we’ll see.

I haven’t been impressed with ruger lately. I’m still bitter over my ruger ranch that had issues and ruger tried telling me it was the ammo manufacturers fault that I couldn’t shoot over half the off the shelf brands.
Also, as a side note, did you know the founder of ruger called for high capacity mag bans? He sent letters to congress telling them to ban the mags because it was easier than banning the guns. Bill Ruger is dead and gone. Modern Ruger is offering integrally suppressed guns, AR15s, AR15 pistols and all sorts of thing things he wouldn't have approved of.

I’m a Ruger fan, I believe in the second amendment and stand by it eventhough I know there are some folk that have no business even touching a firearm and I chuckle at the actual need for a high capacity magazine.
Maybe the only thing Biden ever said that I concur with was his Double barrel shotgun comment.

What the hell did Biden say about the double barrel shotgun?
“Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.”
On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

Second amendment wasn’t created to protect yourself from some methed up tweaker trying to break in your house. It was created as a form of resistance against tyranny. There’s a reason just about all armies in the world have moved towards automatic and semi-automatic weapons with high capacity mags from the old bolt actions with 5rd mags.

I said I support the second fully. I still chuckle at remarks like the above ^^^^^^
Folk with this attitude are a distraction and fodder for folk like me. Hi-Cap AIN’T the way to stand against tyranny. “ fire superiority” is a state of mind, breaking the will to fight and surviving to fight another day is key. So, there may exist a “reason why all of the armies of the world...“ but to ignore Stalingrad and “the old bolt action” is a mistake that will haunt, to ignore the tactics of the VC a bad idea too. To think a well armed militia backed by the second amendment has fire superiority would be the biggest mistake yet.
If y’all need schooling on warfare, I’m your huckleberry. I am a (g)od of war.
Per the topic. long live the leveraction !

Per the topic. long live the leveraction ! Stalingrad had a ton of machine guns like the PPSH’s and the vietcong had AK’s and SKS’s among other things. Obviously tactics play a critical role but It’s really naive to say that high capacity magazines have no benefit in warfare. If your plan is really to be like that guy in the video standing in the open trying to play cowboy, then we know who the real fodder is going to be.

You need to learn history instead of taking the Rednek Ignorance with arrogance approach. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyudmila_PavlichenkoI have demilitarized and left more full auto hi cap weapons on the battlefields of the world in favor of a shotgun and 40mm than you have ever encountered. I am laughing at you though. I’m not sure what scenario you have envisioned for the necessity of your favored weapon but if you think its to go toe-2-toe with military or police forces to fight tyranny you are in a delusional state at best. Because I created the “highway of death” (a smidgen of my handiwork), people with weapons far beyond what you can buy at Academy, I know without hesitation you have delusion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_of_DeathA resistance of the type to fight tyranny would be better suited fighting from the shadows. Marlin to Ruger...Long live the Leveraction !

I really hate the be the bearer of bad news, but you’re not the only one with deployments or combat experience, so I know for a fact you’re talking out of your ass. But I’ll catch up with you later, I’m going to send a 2028 up to the department of the Army and tell them how their infantry manual and ranger handbooks that were built with years of experience are just full of shucks, and that fire superiority isn’t a real thing because some guy on the internet who’s the worlds leading weapons and tactics expert told me so.

“First There” I think some of you are missing the point, whether you have a tax stamp and goodies, or bought your wanna-be rifle from Academy, you ain’t gonna introduce superiority of weaponry over a tyrannical organized government with weapons of the like you would have a hard time wrapping your head around. This all started because someone decided to point out their interpretation of why we are to have a second amendment. I’m pointing out that (if) the intent was to have equal weaponry for the use against a tyrannical government, you are way behind the powercurve. You will NEVER have superior weapons compared to today’s forces. We can’t even discuss the 2nd amendment uses against thugs, thieves, Antifa, Negro lives matter, or a drunk brother-n-law, because the fella went straight to the “tyranny“ argument. Just remember “Ranger” school is a career for an Army troop, its just one course of many for my type. I have a Ranger tab from when it meant something, met the wizard at Camp Rudder too. Now they give it to girls in the AirForce, doesn’t get much more diluted than that...agreed? https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/...t-female-airman-to-earn-army-ranger-tab/I’ll help y’all learn, gotta drop the rednek ignorance with arrogance though. “You can’t learn until you first realize how STUPID you are.“ https://afspecialwarfare.com/ranger-assessment-course-13may/-Johnnyloco (g)od of war

You never went to Ranger School. Going to the school is a far cry from performing any sort of actual operation.
The only thing you were "first" at was helping someone off a bird at the helipad or asking an officer if they want cream or sugar.

Its all good brothers, I and Uncle Sam know what I am. Ignorance of the Air Force mission is nothing new, redneks just have the ignorance with arrogance disorder. Please keep working and paying your taxes, I‘m looking forward to purchasing a few Ruger made Marlins with y’alls hard earned dollars. Some funny fellas fer shol
