Did marlin make a bolt action shotgun?
Yes, Marlin made a bolt action shotgun called the "Goose Gun". It was 12 ga only, and, I believe it held a total of 3 shots. It was a full choke weapon. Back in the 1970s a lot of guys cut the barrel down, and converted them to slug guns. This was in the era when commercially made slug guns were not always readily available. The Goose Gun has been discontinued, but, I'm not sure when.
About 15 years ago, Marlin made a bolt action, slug gun with a fully rifled barrel. This beast kicked like a mule, and I had to sell it. My friend was an expert with heavy recoiling guns, and, he could not get it to shoot straight either ! I sent it back to Marlin, and they were able to shoot small groups with it. I could never make it shoot straight. Again, this gun was discontinued. I think its fearsome recoil contributed to its demise.
Depends on the condition.
Age of harrington richerdson model 158 12gauge?
The Harrington & Richardson Model 158 is a break-action shotgun that was produced from the late 1960s until the early 1980s. It is a 12-gauge firearm known for its simplicity and reliability. The exact age of a specific Model 158 can be determined by its serial number, as production dates can vary within that range. If you're looking for a specific year of manufacture, checking the serial number against H&R production records would provide the most accurate information.

What caliber of rifle do you need to kill a deer?
That's sort a difficult question to answer. Any caliber might happen to kill a deer. A good gun would be 7mm or 308. Depending on the size of the deer. And how much recoil you can take and how loud maybe. Just make sure you can get a rifle that you like and fits you comfortably. some calibers might be .243 30-30 7mm-08 .270 and most calibers over a .223 will kill a deer either by dropping it or you would have to follow a blood trail . but dont get a caliber that you cant handle or is to big . You can go to your local gun smith for their opinion also. happy hunting and safe hunting and remember to take youths to get them into the sport.
