Hi,
I'm confused a bit.
I'd like to buy a Model 795 rimfire rifle.
Here's what I've read so far:
1. "Only buy an older Model 795, ones with the JM stamp. The 795 has gone downhill sense Remington started making them."
2. "The Remlin 795s (Remington/Marlin) are every bit as good, maybe better, than the older JM stamped Model 795s".
3. "After Remington bought Marlin, the Model 795s they were putting out were VERY problematic. But the 795s they're producing now are great."
These are three very different views.
If #3 is correct, how does one tell the difference between the good Remington/Marlins and the problematic ones?
Thank you.
