The Man Who KnoWs 



goes duck hunting with a MARLIN re- 

 peating shotgun. He finds MARLIN 

 accuracy and MARLIN buoyancy and 

 ease of handling of considerable help 

 when they fly fast. 



The unique MARLIN breech-bolt, that 



shuts out rain and water and keeps 



the shells dry, is another thing to 



consider, along with the solid top 



— and side ejector. 



Ij^ The MARLIN 12-gauge is 

 made for both black and smoke- 

 less powders, and to take heavy 

 loads easily. It has % less parts 

 than any other repeating gun and handles 

 very fast. A famous gun for hard usage 

 and all weathers. 

 There's a lot of invaluable gun information in our 

 catalogue (300 illustrations). It's free for 3 stamps 

 postage with our Experience Book, which tells 

 many vivid tales of MARLIN prowess.
