I saw some news from the shot show and one of the items that really stood out to me was the new Marlin 1894SBL. It's a grey laminated stock, with a large loop, and an XS sight & rail system so you could mount anything from scout scopes, regular scopes to red dots on it. I think it'd be a sweet gun for hunting around these parts, but the only problem is that I'm sure it'll be close to $800 or more.
