#1 Has anybody seen the stainless guide gun at gun stores/shows yet?
#2 Wild West Guns makes a larger loop lever for marlin guns. According to the web site these may require a gunsmith to fit the in. Has anybody bought or used one of these? Do they swap right out or do they require "fitting"?
I don't know why marlin does not do this, the guide gun is more or less designed for fast compact handling is a "woods" cartridge. In MI there is usually snow on the ground and the standard loop is too small for a gloved hand!
