Marlin 1894CS .357

Post by GFK » Fri Mar 22, 2019 11:01 pm

A while back ( over a year or so ago), I stated I was looking for a .357 rifle. I finally decided on a Marlin. It was a little cheaper and has a loading gate. Even though a tube is not a deal breaker, I seem to prefer a gate for now. And yes, I did make an on-line purchase (sight unseen).

Very nice! Any range reports or is that hang tag still on it?

I like the look the gate gives to the overall appearance!

I think the JM Marlin .357 I was looking at might be a memory now considering my well issues!

Hopefully just a temporary setback.

I would like to hear how that Marlin groups with lead bullets.

Nice looking rifle.
