In all seriousness, the Marlin is a great rifle, too. I own a Model 60, one of the best rifles ever made.
Brownings are nice, but in terms of quality AND accuarcy AND ruggedness, it's hard to beat the Marlin.
California sucks that's it.
When BC talks about quality members, he is of course referring to me! Welcome!!
You'll soon be able to tell who on here is full of crap.
