Have a couple Marlin 45/70s ...Both need barrels shortened and new dovetail to replace same front sight..Both need LOP change...one needs the mag tube shortened with the barrel....
Would also like to get the actions slicked up like butter...both are to be used hunting..Not cowboy action guns....
Any recommendations appreciated ...judt prefer a quicker turnaround if possible !
Thanks! [emoji1783][emoji1783][emoji1783]
 
Check with Wild West Guns in Anchorage AK. They are really good with Marlin lever actions
 
I wouldn’t shorten the Marlins to 18.5”. I’ve shot my buddy’s and it kicks like a mule! HE doesn’t even shoot it anymore. My CZ 550 .458WM has less felt recoil to me.
 
a good smith is Bill at Spring Creek Armory in TenSleep Wy 1-307-431-9194 very nice guy

Phillip I was reviewing some of the auctions online and saw your Nubian Ibex hunt coming up this weekend. It also showed you have Addax and Axis deer. Is there a website I can go to and see the lodge, cost of animals and what is available? Thanks Mark

Appreciate your Limcroma/Franco comments. Will be seeing him in April....again. great person as well as his family (he has a new born son). I will always recommend him who makes a hunt special and exciting. Marc

I really like that knife you're selling. It looks so similar to my original 1306 that has been around a long time. I can't spend that much but if you get to a point where you'd entertain offers let me know. Thx, James
