RE: 45/70 Government & Marlin 1895 Cowboy Question
When I got to Cabelas, I decided not to buy it because I didn't like the front sight and I also didn't like the idea that it didn't have studs for mounting a sling. I ended up buying a 336 SS in 30-30. Not really crazy about the caliber but I love the gun.
I wouldn't ever buy a gun from Wal-Mart even if the price was lower. I want to make sure that there are places out there that are going to have the stuff that I need when I need it. Also I don't like Wal-Mart business practices and how they control markets and such.
