I took the Marlin Model 410 to the range with some Remington 2 1/2" #6 shot to pattern it and try it out. The action is super slick, better than any new Marlin I have seen in a long time. The knob that I thought was for a cartridge stop didn't seem to affect it at all, so I am thinking there was a second part to it, a spring or something that rode inside of it, but since there's no shell count restriction for squirrels, rabbits or grouse, I don't have to worry about it and won't mess with it.
I patterned the gun at 25, 30, and 40 yards. I had two targets at 40 yards, one target had 26 pellets, the other, 27. It shoots wonderfully, and I can't wait to get this thing into the woods. It feeds perfectly and ejects the empties without a problem. I want to try some buckshot in it just for the heck of it.

Re: The Marlin 410 to the range
That looks as if it will work. I hope you see enough game to find out just how well it can work.

Congratulations. That looks like something a guy could get serious with.

That'll do fine, not a squirrel or bunny safe now.
Try some of that Winchester with the disks and shot, if you reload ballistic products has their thug slug and light game slug as well as buckshot data.
