The discontinuation of UltraSlugs and HandiRifles was recent enough the tooling is probably still in storage, and in good shape .
I don't see the problem with asking for a modernized lever gun. There's a lot of people in true ban states who would benefit, and I think it could potentially be quite good for hunters. Not everyone who likes levers and revolvers wants to play cowboys and Indians.This is what we’ll probably get.
Marlin
Remlin
Ruglin or will it be Rugerlin?
I would love to see ruger branded or ruger inspired cowboy style lever actions. That would go nicely with my New Vaqueros!
I’m a big Ruger fan so this sounds great. Soon we will have endless posts about pre and post Ruger Marlins to have fun with.

You will see more of this in the future, as gun MFGs get more pressure to not make certain models and Liberal States make things more difficult to own any gun. MD will be next to create more Liberal gun laws that do not work. Just hope that a Republican gets elected in place of Hogan. MD is NY lite and is leaning more in the NY direction of making things more difficult for responsible gun owners. You will see that MD will require a permit to buy a gun like NY and NJ as stuff rolls down hill. I hope I am wrong but MD has been infringing on our gun rights more and more.
Wonder whats going to happen with Marlins existing lineups that overlap or are in direct competition with Ruger's lineup? Model 60, XT22, etc.
I have been looking halfheartedly for a XT22 Wood Grain in .22LR for a few months, maybe its time I get off my butt and seriously look. Seems out of stock everywhere I have checked. (I want a NIB one)
Not the right place to ask probably, but anyone happen to see one in stock anywhere recently?
As long as it keeps Marlin alive.
Modernized lever gun that takes AR mags, has a MLOK forend, threaded barrel, optics rail, and a stock like a Magpul SGA... make it happen, Ruger. Bonus points if it's in 458 SOCOM.
