And I really, really like those Marlin Camp-9s.
The predecessor of all these new carbines.
Detachable S&W mags, up to 40 rounds.
But with a better fit/finish.
And about the same price, barely-shot used.
I’m going to find and buy one.

Good luck finding one at a reasonable price! I liked those Marlin Camp carbines too, I wanted one in ..45,, I guess they are even rarer now than the 9s.

I was in a situation where I might run into a few rogue black bears that were attacking hikers in the areas around my ranch, and I didn’t want to haul my five pound .454 around all the time, nor a rifle or shotgun. So instead of buying a lighter .44 Mag, I decided to convert what I had to Rowland.

I don’t regret the decision. Never did run into those bears though.
