    I love this 45-70. Would you believe I paid $750 for it, maybe $850, in as new condition. It is one or the last original Marlins.

    Carlson Highway claimed to have put a mark on her filing but to my dissapointment I could not find it. An unmarked gun is terrible for someone like me. She needs blooded.

    So much fun to shoot. I am going to handload those 325FTX. No black powder. Too dirty! I do need a blackpowder rifle but not this one.

    I now have the issue that having looked over Carlsenhighway's wood blued rifles I feel a hole in my cupboard that definitely is not there. Not unless I get a new cupboard.

    I think any one can find one of these holes in the cupboard. If they can't, then they need to go back and look harder. Probably just had one of those bloke looks that our other halves always complain about.

    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
