Remington killed the Marlin Firearms brand with their crappy "Remlins." Lets hope Ruger can return the Marlin brand to the standards seen in the old "JM" marked guns. Long live the lever action!
Ruger/Remy Pump,,,
Very Interesting.
“Ruger has purchases most all of the assets of Marlin Firearms from the seemingly perpetually bankrupt Remington. “
Harvard Business School and Wall Street. :)
My brother stole a Marlin 39A Golden Mountie Rifle from me and traded it for a bag of weed. My grandfather left it to me.
I doubt I’ll ever forgive him for it.

I learned a few weeks ago that Bushmaster/DPMS was bought out by Remington and shut down.
I know because I bought an LR-308 a couple of years ago that I never fired. When I finally got around to it, it wouldn’t cycle. Took a while to figure out where to send it, but Remington fixed it for free.
I’ve loved my Marlin model 795 .22 rifle for over 15 years. I hope Ruger (with their fine 10/22) don’t decide the 795 isn’t needed anymore.

I still have mine. Got it when I was 14. Sweet lever-action.
Accurate as hell.

This could be good for the Marlin brand which has suffered under Remington management.
You got that right mate. Maybe they’ll start making them the way they used to. I was lucky and got a Guide Gun by Mwrlin before they tubed. A Rolex.
Oh man... neither would I.
Wow, that was cruel. People will do awful things to kin for dope. I hope he got his act together.
I bought a 795 first and then discovered the Marlin 60, now I have 8-9 of them.

This is breaking new ground for Ruger; I hope they have a good plan to preserve the Marlin brand - including legacy designs.
My first rifle was a Marlin model 60. I got it in the early ‘80s for about 40 bucks at Kmart.

“I hope he got his act together.”
Nope. 3 years in a State Prison for embezzling $100,000 from a church.

Maybe Ruger can move the Marlin operations to its Prescott facility. They have plenty of room for it.
I still have my Marlin Camp 9 from 26 years ago.
My very first 22 rifle was a tubular mag design. I can't remember for sure, but since that was in the sixties, it could very well have been a Marlin 60.
