Manufactured from 1894 to 1935, this rifle features a German silver blade front sight and a buckhorn rear sight. The top of the barrel is marked "MARLIN FIRE-ARMS CO., NEW. HAVEN, CT. U.SA. / PATENTED / PAT'D OCT. 11, 1887. APRIL 2, 1889. AUG. 1, 1893" and "38-40" at the breech. Blue barrel and full length magazine tube with the remaining surfaces casehardened. The top of the receiver is drilled and tapped for a sight mount. The upper tang is marked "MARLIN / MODEL '94". Mounted on a straight grain walnut sock and forearm.

Excellent. The barrel and magazine tube retains at least 85% original blue finish with some minor pitting near the barrel caliber marking. The frame, lever and hammer retain approximately 95% plus original vivid and bright case colors. The buttstock has some minor marring on the right side. Otherwise the wood is excellent with some scattered minor dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
