Blued Special Smokeless Steel barrel with a single bead sight, standard markings, and choke constriction of .038 inches. The blued receiver displays beautifully executed game scenes showing a flock of four mallards in flight over a marsh scene on the left side and a pair of flying pigeons on the right side situated on the bolt below the matted sighting flat, with the balance of the action covered by fine arabesque scrollwork and surrounded by wavy line borders. Beautifully figured, multi-point checkered forend and Marlin S-pattern pistol grip stock with factory hard rubber buttplate. Length of pull 13 5/8 inches. Weight 7 lbs. 2 oz.

Rating Definition:

Excellent overall, retaining 90% plus bright original high polish blue finish with the majority of the loss on the tangs which have turned a brown patina, some light cycling wear on the magazine tube, very minor areas of tiny spotting, minor handling evidence, and sharp checkering on the stock and forend. Mechanically excellent.
