What I am looking for is a carbine length 45 long colt. I want it to be stainless with good black checkered laminate wood and a threaded barrel. This will be my general all round the property rifle here. I have several suppressors on the way. I am just unable to find what I am looking for. I am not opposed to buying a stock rifle hand having someone work it over to what i want. the closest thing i can come up with is Big horn armory's 90a which is 4k. Henry's bigboy stainless is a good option, but it is not threaded and the laminate is not checkered. https://www.midwayusa.com/prod...ss-and-black-polymer | ||

Try Marlin custom shop. There was a video of custom Marlins from Shot Show 2017 - in the configuration you are looking for. | |||
|
Wait, what? |
Second this. There is no better “all Marlin” shop out there. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

I emailed Ranger point. They no longer do any gunsmthing. They just make parts.

https://www.thefirearmblog.com...w-marlin-lever-guns/ I did not see stock models in 45 LC, but their custom shop must be able to do it if they are available in other calibers. | |||

Wild West Guns Brokman's I think Gary Reeder does some. Dave Clay (DRC) (still doing them? Dunno) Ben Forkin used to work on lever guns. Don't know what Mic McPherson is doing now. _____________________________________________________ Sliced bread, the greatest thing since the 1911. | |||

| Wait, what? |
That is a shame. I guess I’m one of the really lucky ones. Their custom parts are excellent and well designed. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

I hate to hear that about Ranger Point. One of my “if I hit the lottery” guns was going to be a 10mm built on an 1895 chassis. | |||

| Oh stewardess, I speak jive.  |
Lew Bonitz at Grizzly Custom is the only lever gun guy I've used. He has serious skills, used to be partners with Ted Yost of custom 1911 fame. | |||

Not really from Vienna |
Jim Brockman used to do custom work on Marlin lever guns, perhaps he can help. http://www.brockmansrifles.com...er-action-price-list | |||

If you're still looking, you might check with a fella named Dennis Olson in Plains, MT. He's a bit of a cranky old bastard, but once you loosen him up a bit he's a great guy and does great work. He's got a very good reputation around these parts and around the world for that matter. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

Something to keep in mind - with the Henry, you'd have to remove the suppressor every time you reload. | |||

Ranger Point Precision worked on JM Marlin SBL chambered in 45-70. For reference, I was using the same ammo, HSM hardcast +P Bear loads, same weather conditions, same range, same distance (50 yards), and same shooting conditions - closed range. I had them do action and accuracy work. Pre RPP work.  Post RPP work.  __________________________ | |||
