In 1870, John M. Marlin launched his namesake company with one goal, to build the best guns in America. While the company would go on to produce a number of firearms, the gun they are most known for is their classic lever-action rifles. Today Marlin is the leading manufacturer of lever-action rifles thanks to their wider selection of calibers, including their model 1895SBL chambered in .45-70 which To celebrate its 150th anniversary Marin has released two special limited editions, a 444 Marlin lever action and a Model 60, .22 LR which is very similar to my first rifle.
