I ordered a Marlin 1894 in 357 mag over a year ago not realizing Remington was going into bankruptcy. I was relieved when Ruger bought them and promised production by December...I didn't count on them starting production with the 1895 in 45-70, I contacted their rep the other day via social media to ask when they were expecting to produce the 1894s. He told me because they are a publicly traded company they could not release much information but he added he wouldn't look for them in the "near" future..but Maybe by the end of next year or the following! So I am considering cancelling my order (fully paid for) and buying a Henry. A few questions
1) I don't like the tube mag. I've heard they make a gated model?
2) I'm looking for that in a steel receiver. I've found a few online in stock..Are the receivers ready for an optic base or can you order them with a rail?
3) the only Henry firearm I own is their AR7 survival rifle. I'm not familiar with their eject system, Are they side or top eject?
4) Do they come in carbine length? I want something close to the size and weight of the Marlin.
thanks
