Description:
Description: 8) BEAUTIFUL CONDITION AND RARE M-93 .38-55 SPORTING CARBINE WITH 18" BARREL, also has the seldom seen MARLIN FIREARMS CORPORATION barrel address that was only used from 1922 to 1924, serial number L839, very unusual to find a carbine in this caliber at this late date as by this time most were .30-30 or .32WS, exc. barrel and mag. blue. correct 2/3 mag., exc. markings, vivid case colors showing only minor age/fading, exc. blue on the butt plate and barrel band with only edge wear, exc. wood, buckhorn rear sight with blade/bead front sight, MINT BORE, exc. markings with Special Smokeless Steel marking on the barrel.

No doubt a special order lightweight carbine.  Really rare in .38-55!

This one hardly looks used and the bore is perfect. It has the scarce "Marlin Firearms Corporation" barrel marking used in the early 1920s! The Marlin book by Brophy shows this sporting carbine made during this time as being available only in .30-30 and .32 Special.  This gun is a .38-55.  A strange one indeed.

Butt plate was taken off and 839 is stamped inside.
