I have been looking for a Marlin 444 p scout but with no luck.

Marlin's web page does not show this rifle in their products line, so I am assuming it is no longer made.

I see there is a lot of information and interest in this caliber and rifle hear at Beartooth so thought I would post an inquirey.

If anyone has an idea where I might find one I would appreciate hearing from you.

I believe you are referring to the Marlin 444P "Outfitter". As for the Scout I can find no information on a Marlin called Scout. But there have been many articles written about mounting a scope forward of the receiver which is classified as a Scout Rifle or Lever Scout. Check out this topic http://forums.sixgunner.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7129

You can go to AuctionArms.com, GunBroker.com or GunsAmerica.com or many of the gun forums and look in the classified adds.

You can check out XS Sight Systems for a Lever Scout mount. http://www.expresssights.com/
Request a catalog from them. They also have a ghost ring sight set up for the Marlin. As for a scope?? I went with the Leupold Scout Scope.

Hello Yanqui,

You are correct. I am not sure how I got it in my mind that it was a Marlin "scout", it is the Marlin 'Outfitter'!

Thank you for the response and I will check out the sites you mentioned.

I appreciate it,
