Yep gotta like a Marlin!

The next JM/pre crossbolt in .357 I come across will not get away!

Yep, looks good 6. When you gonna shoot it? And, will you handload for it? Thanks.
I'm going out tomorrow (Sunday) to try it out. And yes, I'll shoot the same load as my BBS.

Well, I don't mind the cross bolt safety.

Neither do I.

Had one before on my previously owned Winchester Trapper.

Just received the last of my lever trilogy rifles.
as one who isn't well versed in Marlin rifles, ware "lever trilogy rifles" ... :?: ... what I do know is that is a nice looking rifle .. :D
Thank you. My "trilogy" as I call it, is just having three levers. A Henry, Winchester, and now a Marlin.

Those are nice trilogies. Although, I am not familiar with Browning. However, there lots of brands that I am not familiar with. I thought about and handled a Winchester, but I did not want third 30-30. Yet, I do have a 2019 1894C that I enjoy shooting. Than again, I enjoy shooting all my lever actions. But, the ammo for the 1894C is a bit cheaper, which is one of the reasons that I bought it. Nevertheless, I shoot them all as often as I can. Happy shooting!

the Browning Lever Action Rifle (BLR) is the rifle that Henry patterned its Long Ranger after .... ours (shown below) was built in Belgium back in 1970 ....

Nice "trilogy" 6, and Jim.
Jim, the BLR it's a 308?
I have a "trilogy" + One.
Henry, Marlin, Winchester, and a Rossi.
