\"Marlin\u2019s<\/a>

Marlin’s new Dark rifles look like something out of a zombie flick. (Model 336, suppressor and scope not included.)<\/p><\/div>\n

Yeah, yeah. We get it. It\u2019s a suppressor-ready blacked-out lever gun with a pic rail and paracord loop. Your grandpappy is rolling in his grave.<\/p>\n

But as much as we wanted to complain about the tacticool bros ruining classic Americana, we got a chance to handle (or fondle, as the case may be) Marlin\u2019s new Dark Model 336<\/a> and Model 1895<\/a> at this year\u2019s NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits, and we gotta admit\u2014these guns are cool.<\/p>\n

The Model 336 is chambered in 30-30 WIN and the big-bore Model 1895 is chambered in 45-70 Govt. Otherwise, the two rifles differ only in the thread pitch on the muzzle. Both come with a paracord sling, a ghost ring rear sight, and a five-shot full-length tubular magazine.<\/p>\n

Weighing in a 7.65 pounds with an overall length of 34.5 inches and a 16.25-inch barrel, Marlin\u2019s Dark Series rifles are maneuverable enough to handle whatever might come, even with a suppressor.<\/p>\n

The beefy Model 1895 is chambered in 45-70. Both models come with a paracord sling.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Marlin\u2019s<\/a>

The stock is covered with a black web paint.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Marlin\u2019s<\/a>

Virtually any type of optic can be mounted on the full-length rail.<\/p><\/div>\n

Remington Firearms, Marlin\u2019s parent company, wasn\u2019t shooting from the hip when they decided to tacticalize these classic rifles. Product Manager Eric Lundgren told GunsAmerica that his team spent time studying customer feedback on their current offerings and tracking the trends coming out of custom shops.<\/p>\n

Turns out, gun enthusiasts have been tinkering with their cowboy sidekicks for years, and Marlin is hoping their new Dark series can be a turnkey solution for lever lovers wanting to modify a classic rifle.<\/p>\n

The most noticeable difference between the Dark Series and Marlin\u2019s more traditional offerings is the finish. The Dark rifles feature a parkerized metal finish, which Lundgren said is more rust resistant and less shiny than standard bluing. (Less shiny, presumably for hiding from zombies, hogs, etc.) The stock is also blacked out with webbed paint.<\/p>\n

\"Marlin\u2019s<\/a>

The barrel can accept any style of muzzle device.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Marlin\u2019s<\/a>

Torx head screws don’t strip as easily as flathead screws.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Marlin\u2019s<\/a>

The oversized loop is wrapped in paracord for added grip.<\/p><\/div>\n

The threaded barrel departs from Marlin\u2019s more recent offerings as well, and the suppressor looks a bit odd hanging off the end. But Lundgren pointed out that Marlin barrels were threaded many years ago, so perhaps it\u2019s not as much of a departure as it seems.<\/p>\n

The takedown screws have also been enhanced, or adulterated, depending on your perspective. Marlin replaced the traditional flathead screws with Torx screws, which are more reliable and less likely to strip. But they don\u2019t look aS clean as flatheads, and they\u2019ll probably give your grandpappy another reason to shift positions six feet under.<\/p>\n

Unlike the screws, the trigger doesn\u2019t appear to have been enhanced. It\u2019s not bad (no creep, clean break), but it\u2019s nothing to write home about.<\/p>\n

Marlin set the MSRP at $949, about $200 more than the standard wooden stock models.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
