I have two Marlin 39A's. They are 31 years apart. 1950 and 1981. WOW what a difference. 1950 has better wood and the action is as smooth as a baby's butt. I don't shoot it much because I shot the newer one a lot and got very used to it before I got the older one. So, I can honestly say I like...

I recall hearing of a town somewhere in the midwest or south that did the reverse of "gun free". They made it a law that all people over a certain age were required to have a gun and know how to safely use it. The crime rate in that town drifted to near zero in a very short time. Can anyone here...
