Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Marlin M55 “Goose Gun” described here is a purpose-built long-range waterfowl shotgun that pairs serious patterning performance with classic bolt-action simplicity. Chambered for 12-gauge 3" magnum shells and fitted with a 36-inch full-length barrel finished in polished blue, this rifle-length shotgun is designed to deliver tight, consistent patterns at extended ranges—exactly what goose and long-range turkey hunters demand. The action is a rugged bolt-action feeding from a two-round detachable box magazine, a deliberate choice that favors precise, powerful follow-ups over capacity. Sighting is straightforward and durable: a simple bead front with a notched rear gives a long sight radius for careful shot placement while retaining the shotgun’s traditional field look. Cosmetically the M55 retains a clean, traditional appearance with a smooth hardwood stock and standard factory markings; the left side of the barrel is stamped “JM,” which appears on the barrel face and helps identify that particular production run or inspector mark. In the field this Marlin M55 will reward deliberate, long-range shots with dense patterns and predictable behavior—making it a specialist’s tool for open-water goose hunting where reach and pattern control matter most.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
