Guns you wish were still in production

For me it’s Marlin camp 9/45

The Ruger PCC is very close to this.

In terms of aesthetics (which is extremely important) it doesn’t compare.

No it looks like the result of Ruger catering to cod generation Mall ninjas' wet dreams and guns and ammo Circa 2005and is a plastic piece of shit.

You can still find a Marlin 99 M1 if you look hard enough.

Goddamn do I love this rifle, it is the best plinker I've ever had.

Yeah, I have the full barrel Model 99, and I love it. Would love to pick up the M1 at some point.

Yea but they have been out of production for almost 20 years now. They are just going to go up in price, and parts will become more scarce

I briefly owned one of these and it was one of the most disappointing guns I have ever bought.

Trigger was absolutely awful.
Obnoxious magazine disconnect that you can't simply remove.
Field stripping is more difficult than it needs to be.
Trigger assembly is needlessly complicated and difficult to get into.
Gotta replace the recoil buffer periodically and stay away from hotter 9mm.
If you run hot stuff or have a worn out recoil buffer you are liable to crack the stock or even the receiver.
To fire hotter 9mm you have to upgrade the recoil spring, but also the charging handle in order to have enough grip to run the thing.
Barrel is really thick, making it very muzzle-heavy and poorly balanced.
Marlin sights are just blehh to me.

Overall it seemed like a really half-assed design where they didn't put enough effort into making it practical and usable. Feels like what happens when you put an early shop prototype into production without refining it first.
