Marlin Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle With Extra Length 30 Inch Barrel

Manufactured from 1894 to 1935, this model is similar to the Model 1893 with a shorter action. Standard period markings with the two line address ending with the 1893 patent date on top of the barrel and "MARLIN / MOD '94" on the upper tang. It also has standard German silver blade front sight and elevator adjustment on the rear sight. Rifle has full magazine, with casehardened receiver, lever, hammer, and buttplate. Smooth forearm with a blued iron forend cap and straight grip stock with a iron crescent buttplate.

ConditionPartially restored wood with the metal excellent. The barrel and magazine retain approximately 95% of the blue finish with some evident of cleaning and a few scattered small areas of minor spotting. The receiver retains approximately 95-97% of the bright original casehardened colors. The lever retains about 30% of the casehardened colors as well as the hammer. The buttplate is a dark smooth patina. The wood is refinished with scattered minor dings and dark spots from freshening and the stock has been freshened also and has three minor cracks that have been nonprofessionally repaired, however the stock remains solid. All markings are clear. The action is fine.
