There asking the typical personal questions but also asking about number of guns in the household, usage, ect....

Is the government behind this or am I being a paranoid coonass?

The boycot Remington thread ( which I didn't read) has me a little cautious.

Tell them Marlin lever actions and their 770 (edit) models have gone to complete crap. They need to get some pride in their craftsmanship once again.

sorry, meant 770
I've shot a few and can say they are definitely junk. The bolt completely locked up on two of them, and they were new guns out the box.

From other reviews:
quote:

don't even harden the steel in the receivers

quote:

Economy press fit rifle

quote:

holding both rifles, and cycling the actions will allow you to feel the difference in quality.

quote:

If you try to rack the bolt up any harder than a light push the bolt with bind in the chamber.

quote:

problem with the 770 stock cracking in higher power calibers like .30-06.

I agree with you on the 770 being junk.
I hate it.

They upset a lot of gun owners by accepting a handout from the very gun-unfriendly NY government to stay in the state. A bunch of companies in anti-gun states are moving south where they are welcomed. Magpul, Colt Precision, Beretta, and Stag are some examples.
