Remington 17HMR recall trade in for Marlin.

I said I would update when Remington sent me the Marlin Trade in. I sent the Remington (17HMR) 597 in May 2 2010, I received my Trade in Marlin XT-17VSFL Feb 14-2012.

Basically it took them 9 and 1/2 months to send me the replacement gun that they said would be shipped "soon".

The New Marlin is very pretty and does shoot very accurate. The only issue I have seen so far with it is that the Magazine does not like to come out and requires some force to remove.

If you are expecting a Marlin trade in dont hold your breath, they are extremely slow!

For information on the recall look at the sticky at the top of this board.

all 26 of my guns are 45/70 govt, 357 mag, 22 or 12 ga... I believe in keeping it simple. Wish my wife did as well...
