Description:
ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT TO FIND MARLIN LEVER RIFLES IS THIS 1891 SIDELOADER .22 RF, this was the first repeating rifle made to accept .22 Short, Long and Long Rifle ammo interchangeably, the “side-loading” version was only made in the first year or so in very limited numbers and are rarely seen today. This one in the 59XXX serial range was made in the first year of production in 1891, standard 24” octagon barrel with correct standard half-length magazine, fine+ butt stock and forearm, correct gallery-type rear sight with small blade front sight, exc. markings, overall metal is uncleaned and an even aged blue/brown/gray mixture with good blue on the bolt and in the more protected areas, exc. markings, tight action and a bore that is surprisingly good considering most of these I’ve seen have no bores left at all because of the corrosive black powder ammo they were fed without proper cleaning, this bore looks a bit worn and has some minor scattered roughness, but still quite shootable, tight action with fine appearance.
