First batch of Marlin rifles after Ruger bought Marlin are hitting the street. Also it's the first batch of Marlins made at the new production facility in Mayodan, NC. Looks like only 3-6 models are being made but only one, the 1895 SBL (45-70), has made it into the wild at the moment. Ruger made some changes to the SBL and I like the changes. More models are planned to come out in 2022. I'm very hopeful about Marlin being owned by Ruger.

Ruger lists all the changes on the product page for the 1895 SBL including all the changes in the markings.

Marlin 1895 SBL

Maybe Marlin prices will come back down to earth now.

Saw some one calling the new Ruger made Marlins Rumlins.

BTW: Merry Christmas Everyone!
