Well, Marlin shut down it's chat room. Expect to see members from that forum to go here and elsewhere. I am one of them. We are a great bunch of guys and enjoy lever action rifles. I am sad to see it go. I was known as 30-30 Man

Well bring your friends over, we have an excellen chat room here and your all welcome to join us.

I was bummed to see it fall, that was a good place with some good guys...and some unique characters as well. This is the 2nd board I've seen mention pop up on.

does anybody know why they took it down ??

Sounds like they won't pay someone to keep an eye on it and "administer" it. Same reason they don't accept e-mails, you have to snail mail them. Too bad, sounds like they are stuck in the '80s. I don't think that they realize what a valuable sales tool that BB was, no way I own a brand new 1895 45-70 had I not found the big bore forum.

Hey Marlin, I'm tired of the airline industry, hire me!!!

I belive its shutdown till Febuary 20th or I read wrong.

Hey gobuff
You are right. I am a lever action junkie. It was that site that got me going.

why did they shut down there chat site? when i owned a marlin i found very much needed information from owners there that i did not find on other sites.
do you know if it will be back up?

Heah! The 18-80's!![&:]

I'm a Marlin Talk Immigrant as of tonight. Glad I found this board.
