I have lots of guns of every sort, but I collect old Marlins. I especially like the ones from the 50s in particular. They were never perfect, but the difference in factory quality from the old days vs modern stuff (especially the 70s and afterward) is amazing.

Right on. I still haven’t tried a Marlin. My first lever action was an Ithaca 49R which is from that era and is a great piece of history. Completely agree on the difference in factory quality.
