oldschool,
I have never see the Marlin in person however it appears that T/C made the rifles for Marlin in 50 and 54 caliber. Looks like most had Synthetic stocks not sure what model they were patterned after. From what I can find it is said the cocking lever could be used on either side (to accommodate right handers) and that the hammer spring was very heavy and noisy. Accuracy is said to be very good. Don't know just what I was able to find and read about them, Made from 97-99.
