Hi Everybody,

I'm brand new to this forum.  A friend turned my on to Appleseed just a few weeks ago. :)

I had nothing even close to suitable to shoot, so when I saw the 795 LTR with all the necessities included, I thought I'd try to obtain one.  I succeeded and picked it up today.  Really neat rifle, but it did NOT come with the certificate.  :(  I was disappointed about that, and I'm hopeful we'll find out what happened.  I'll keep watching this thread.

Jim i SA,
  Appleseed Gift Certificate - along with Davidson's "Warrantee Card," packed in clear bag in shipping carton for the rifles, NOT in the individual Marlin cartons - that indicates that they're being inserted @ Davidson's rather than @ Marlin factory, as rifle cartons are taped shut, presumably @ factory.
   
  They're in there - just don't let your FFL throw away shipping cartons without retrieving the bag...

Excelsior and  see you and LTR on Appleseed line,

Gentlemen

Thank you for the quick responses.  I fired off an email to my ffl as soon as I read them.  They're closed because today is Sunday, but with a little luck, maybe the trash didn't get picked up on a Saturday.  Thanks again.

Haven't heard back from Davidson's (sent email). My FFL assures me that they checked both boxes - shipping and rifle - VERY carefully, and it was not in there. If it was in the same bag with the warranty card, that wasn't in there either! I got a manual, sling, 2 extra mags, and a trigger lock, but NO Appleseed gift certificate, and no warranty card.

The Marlin 795 LTR package is still a good deal, even without the gift certificate.  Certainly more convenient than accumulating and assembling all the parts. 
I recall the Appleseed gift certificate was "for a limited time only" I guess that time expired. 
This blog says the certificates were a promotion through 04 July 2013:  http://www.bob-owens.com/2013/02/marlinappleseed-ltr-announced/

No the offer has not expired. The location of where the certificates were being placed was not well thought out and is being addressed by Davidsons/Marlin so as to make it easier to locate them.

The certificates have no expiration date on them and every rifle shipped prior to Jan 1 2014 is to have a certificate with it. If you get a package that does not include the certificate contact Davidsons and they should be sending you a replacement. The Certificate is actually listed as a separate line item on the shipping document just as the rifle itself is listed as a separate line item to the FFL.

I called my dealer back regarding the missing Appleseed certificate; they found it and will mail it to me.


Did others receive only 1 one inch swivel (attached to the sling).  I received one only, will have to get another for for the hasty and hasty hasty.

Just heard back from Davidson's - they will mail me a copy of the missing gift certificate and warranty card. :-)
