Did Marlin ever make a non-Cowboy, 20" barrel in .45 Colt?
I'm thinking about either a .44 or .45 1894 to go with my .357 but it seems like all I see are the CB version.
Thanks!

Re: So a guy at work asks me about .44 Mag revolvers...
I have not shot a lot of Smith firearms, but every one was smooth and accurate. Wait until you shoot one that's had a bunch of rounds put through it or the trigger professionally massaged. You'll compare every revolver you shoot from then on against that one. :wink: I had a 4" 27-2 (IIRC, or i...

The guy that works at the bench next to mine went on vacation a couple of weeks ago and one of the stops was his in-laws. When he came back to work he asked me if I thought XXX was a good price for a .44 Mag revolver he bought. My first question was if he'd burnt his hands picking it up. That's when...
