MARLIN 450 question
Does Marlin make a 450 cal. Stainless, Ported? I've seen the blue, ported, but no one advertises the stainless ported. The marlin website wasn't any help. Any info would be appreciated.

As I recall they used to make a stainless and ported carbine in .450 Marlin, similar to their Guide Guns. However, Marlin ditched their ported carbines due to noise level complaints. These ported short barrel carbines were very, very, very, LOUD!!, and did not really reduce recoil all that much. Especially, since these magnum rounds were being fired out of carbine length barrels anyway.

Thank you Boomer. I guess I have to look for an old one then. I own a couple of ported rifles, and yes they are LOUD. I figure though, I wear heavy sound protection, at the range where I do most of my shooting. ANY help in recoil reduction is welcome when shooting multiple rounds. [8D] 0 -

Wizard I think I found a distributor that has some of these SS 450's in supply. I'll try to call them tomorrow and find out for sure.

Thanks Allen. I should have known to wait for you to get caught up and then ask you for help.[;)] [8D] 0
