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.
Many of the above, plus clubs, slingshots, and rocks. Yes, rocks.
JA rocks isnt hard to believe with you, considering you were aound before dirt was invented.
I USE THE FORCE!
