Just recieved a Marlin .444S in a trade
« on: April 19, 2014, 01:25:29 PM »
Marlin 444S Lever action, (I think its 1977) its in Mint condition. Does anyone know much about these? What are they worth? What do they like to shoot? Effective range?

It came with Hornady 265g ammo.

Why you want to sell it?

Not sure yet. I want to learn a bit about them first. Might be a good deer/moose/bear gun for me in Maine. I wanted something with a little more range but would like to learn a bit more about the 444.

They are not suitable or useful for much of anything.

PM me with a really cheap price because I desperately want one because I'm a good guy and would be willing to take it off your hands just to help you out of your predicament.

I have absolutely no need or use for one, but I just think they are really cool and would like to pick one up at some point.

I've never owned a lever gun (Daisy bb gun excluded) and a 444 Marlin would just be fun.

I wanted a remington 760 pump Carbine in 30-06 for a brush gun, but this gun is pretty sweet. Ill have to shoot it and see how it feels.

You won't like it.

Save yourself the trouble and PM an offer with a really low ball price just to take it off your hands.

Sorry Dan-o...........

Go shoot your new to you trip 4 and you'll most likely not ever sell it.   :hello:

Wish I would pull mine out and shoot it more.
