I'm really curious to see some more responses here. I think Marlin makes a very nice lever action. While lever actions are some what older they are great guns.

While I know Remington makes and sells more guns that Marlin I don't think very highly of them. Of course though most people only own Remingtons so of course they are the best.

I think Remington makes a cheap disposable gun. I have several experiences to prove it.
