The camp rifles are so easy to shoot, pleasant might even be a better word. My buddy has the Camp 9. There was a dealer at the "Big Reno Gun Show" many years ago who had a rifle rack full of them and none for sale. Just for show n tell. The co-worker who I bought mine from threw in a second trigger group he bought from Marlin. His intention was to modify it so it would take Smith and Wesson 45 acp (645 / 4506) magazines because that is what we were all carrying on duty at the time. He never figured it out and I never gave it any thought.

Welcome!

I have a Camp 45 and Camp 9. 45 was shot once and put away before I bought it on GB, later model. Near pristine. The 9 was a complete basket case, got it for a song, missing pieces and painted. Rebuilt, reblued. The 45 is just a hoot to shoot with slow target ammo. Pull trigger. Eat ham sammich. Hear target slap. Anyway both perversely fall under the nasty auspices of our rather recent ugly and misdirected gun laws as you know.


Ha. I have a couple Marlin "Camp 45 mags" that I just use in my normal 1911 mag rotation. I probably should preserve them. For the 9 have a hodgepodge of aftermarket 9mm magazines, most fight with me.
