Stunning selection there SimG although it is fair to say when I saw the first picture with 15 or so under-levers I was impressed, then I scrolled down and started going off you...

Does Sim ride Side saddle or bareback and does he go to support group for the purchase of all these Marlins (I can't quit when I want to, but I just don't want to).

I agree with ovenpaa's sentiment, I was impressed and now will refrain from speaking to you in fear of this collection being mentioned!

Very nice collection indeed :good:

A shooting mate of mine has one in 45-70, a short stumpy thing, that is a hell of a thing to shoot.I thought my M44 carbine was punchy but it isn't a patch on his Marlin.
