   Was wondering if anyone has experience with this rifle?  I've been lookin for a few moths for a JM marlin but no luck in my price range.
   I'm looking into upgrading the sights, probably just the rear as the front looks pretty fixed. Im looking into a tang peep sight or just a peep sight that attaches to the factory scope mounts. Im curious what my best option would be as I've never used either. The manufacturers that I've spoken to don't seem to know if the AE differs from the traditional top eject
   Thanks for any help or suggestions
Man I shoot way too much :)

AE is short for angle eject. Still ejects out of the top, but on an angle so a scope can be mounted directly above the bore. Pre AE 94s had to have their scopes mounted off to the side.

Lot's of cowboy action shooters are using Rossi and Uberti .357s with slicked up actions for speed. I prefer my Henry Big Boy Steel for hunting. Depends on what you intended use is.

Haven't heard much good about the "Remlin" lever guns.
