Re: The .444 is back.
I once thought I wanted a .444 about 20 years ago, but then I got a genuine Marlin 1895 in 45-70 and decided I did not need a .444. And I have never regretted it. God Bless.

Panzercat. the price you pay is the total, they require the deposit(by credit card) before they ship the firearm, then you pay the balance to your dealer when you pickup your firearm. The $14.95 fee is shipping. God Bless.
