Marlin!

I dunno...I don't like the look of a rail on a lever gun.

That gun also looks like it should be chambered in something a lot bigger than .357.

With that laminate stock it looks more like a 336 then a 1894. I’d prefer something with solid wood... just more traditional looking I guess..

I thought about the Henry too but I like loading gates better then tube loading.

I will have 2 of these eventually, one in 38/357 and one in something larger .30-30 or maybe .45-70...

 

Because sometimes you may need to hunt dinosaurs.

Had two real Marlins. One an 1895 in 45-70 and one in 35 Remington.  Never really enjoyed them that much. Hard hitting yes, but follow up shots were slow and difficult.  Now the 38/357 and 45 Colt in a '92 are much better at fast and accurate shooting.  You just have to have a straight stock on it as well.

Meh it's a Marlin, email me when it breaks and you want a Henry recommendation.

Really though these do look pretty sweet, I hope they work out well.

To the lever action home defense gun I will reiterate what I have said before in other threads, people are freaking stupid. Henry builds a great gun but you will not see me using one other than target/hunting. I'll take 15 rounds of 223 at half the weight and way less chance of shooting threw my wall, the living room wall, fridge, exterior wall, neighbors wall, neighbors dog and ending up in their concrete basement wall

I feel like you became a man when you pressed "submit Reply".  Well done, well said and very professional.

why?  .357 loaded to older specs is more than enough for just about anything you'll ever see in NA

    • I very seriously doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.    1) Harbor pilots are VERY seriously vetted, and highly trained. Not to mention extremely well paid. My experience knowing a few of them, and knowing how they are recruited and screened tells me that there is a slim to highly unlikely chance that a harbor pilot would have participated in anything like that.    2) Maintenance of foreign flag ships is well known to be dubious. Especially these days. These were NOT US flag, Jones act sailors. It was (to my understanding) a largely Indian crew on that ship, with a Ukrainian Captain. Indian crews are not exactly known for being stellar.    3) The bunkers (fuel) these ships use is ‘Bunker C’, which is a heavy, dirty fuel oil that can, and usually is, pretty contaminated. This stuff ain’t your car grade gasoline or diesel fuel. It’s nasty.   It requires nearly constant filter changes and maintenance to the engine/generators. The ship took on fuel prior to departing port, which would stir up all kinds of shit in the fuel tanks, which would contribute to particulates in the fuel lines/filters.    4) I’d say the posting of the chief engineer for Maserek above was pretty spot on as far as chain of events.    This was a shitty accident, with horrible timing and outcome. Not a terror attack. 
    • I saw Lara's interview on Bannon's War Room, and that gave me pause for thought. Her conjecture depends primarily on the veracity of her sources. Regardless, if it's not applicable in any way to this ship disaster, the methods described seem valid to me. And worthy of consideration for the future. As I said before, IMO something is coming.
