Heart be still. I have been without a .44 carbine of any kind for some time. I am excited to see this Marlin now set to happen. (y)

Hopefully a 357 mag. Is in the near future.💙 357s even in JMs were hard to find.🤞🤞

With the Ruger Newsroom announcement, they said these new 1894's are in the supply chain. They must've been all pre-ordered and pre-sold, as I cannot find one anywhere. Same thing happened when the 1895 was first released by Ruger. Now, the 1895's show up for sale regularly.

.357 or .44 ? A toss up for me, as they both have different missions within my world. I have an older .357 and a newer .357 . Neither are being shot. But for whatever reason, I really need the .44 version. And likely, after the first couple of range trips, it'll likely remain in the safe also. But I'll sure be happy to know I own one. Such is my world.:)

I have two JM 44s , pretty much had given up on the 357. Was at a time or two considering a Rossi , not sure on that. Read to many negatives on them .

My world, too LOL I get excited when it's coming in, shoot it a time or two, and put it away just knowing it's there. I'm still glad I bought it, but I always seem to rotate the regular 6-8 when I go to the range. Weird...

I like your thinking .😊 With inflation going the way it is , down the road ,those safe guns are as good as money in the bank. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself .......😄

I was hoping they'd lose the barrel bands and the hooded appendage. Forend caps, magazine hangers and dovetailed sights must be expensive and/or troublesome. Nice looking gun though
