Re: A lovely little Marlin...
Yep, saw it. Not my taste, but I would have been tempted had it been a model 62 in .256 mag. The 62s in either .30 or .256 struggle to find their place really. Neat and quirky are just as good reasons to own as useful is. Magazines for them sometimes change hands for more than the cost of a rifle, Stateside...
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Re: A lovely little Marlin...
Isn't there a way to mod M1 carbine mags to work in them? I'm sure I've heard it done, some filing on the feed lips or something? I only called it a Levermatic as they bought the patent from the company which I believe by that time had passed to the head of the assembly line and he earn't a 6 figure sum he retired on or something like that? Before Adler they were the last company to try a modern lever action 12 bore repeater.Sim G wrote:Yep, saw it. Not my taste, but I would have been tempted had it been a model 62 in .256 mag.

Re: A lovely little Marlin...
Wait a min Sim, are you and Saddler on the same page as me on that Addler Shotgun? A while back on their facebook they mentioned looking for a uk distributor. Is there anyone interested in doing that? I mean it's a modern lever action that can have a barrel less than 24 inches but an OAL no less 12/24 (it's been done to death but we all know 20 inches, even 18 inches or so on a lever action is fine thus the 1887 repro's we see).Sim G wrote:Adler 112......

I'm actually surprised no one has thought about them here yet, they're a hit down under and seem to work as well as a modern pump or semi so why not?
