Apparently me and Marlins dont mix....they must be Yankees
Seriously though, I have bought probaly a good half a dozen Marlins over the years, some new and some old. They all had flaws...the worst was a brand new 22 Magnum I bought.
I wont go through the long speel on what all happened with it, but the short of it is that it NEVER hit anywhere close to the same spot twice, open sight or scoped. I always thought that was really weird. Half the time it wouldn't throw the cases either. I had alot of folks look at it and nobody else could figger it out so I said to hell with it and bought a rem.
The 22 autos always seem to jam and don't seem to hit on much after 30 yards.

Now, this is just ME...they are perty popular I think so they must be just fine...maybe I was jinxed.
My vote is fer a rem or a savage. Both have been very dependable for me.
