I took a chance and got a remlin 45-70 guide gun for myself this past Christmas, subsequently I picked up a 1964 336 couple of months later. Honestly, the only difference is the furniture on the remlin could have used a tad more work BUT, the quality of the 2 is near identical. Butter smooth actions, no marks, no canted sights or razor edges. My guide gun can proudly sit next to his older brother and feel just as much pride in looks and function. I'd say somebody IS trying there in Ilion and succeeding. btw, both are tack drivers. Long live the Republic.
