Comments: Overall good condition, Marlin did issue a warning not to fire this model shotgun as well as all other Marlin hammer slide action shotguns due to safety concerns. However, the owner has hunted with the gun for many years with no problem. Still works fine. A fairly new canvas padded gun case is included. The gun was inherited in the early 1970’s from an elderly uncle who I believe was the original owner.
