I have always wanted a muzzle loader with a Curly Maple stock.....cool looking Marlin 
If more men loved and cherished their wives as much as I love bacon the world would be a much better place.

I really like maple and walnut . I’d be willing to bet Grice had something to do with that gun .

Re: Wow, Curly Maple!!!
Never been a fan of light colored stocks, and with the dark checkering even less. I prefer walnut, and the darker the better for me personally. I do own two rifles with birdseye maple stocks, and they're a darker wood than this curly maple. Still rather have walnut, but they're OK.
This one is a Schoyen Ballard in maple stocks.
And a Pope Ballard in maple stocks.

Some people prefer blondes, others prefer brunettes or redheads. It is all just a matter of personal choice.
