I just got done reading a post from today over on Marlinowners.com, that the Freedom Group which owns Marlin has stopped all lever gun production for 2011. The reason is they have had numerous quality issues with most of their lever gun models since moving into their new plant in the south.

I think marlinowners.com are having problems of their own!

Greybeard Outdoors is also down. from posts earlier in the week they use the same server

Better run right out and buy a couple hundred before they double or triple in value at the next gun show.
