Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: HARD TO FIND 1895 26” OCTAGON RIFLE IN .40-65 CALIBER, #167XXX, MADE 1898. This is a fine condition example that still retains most of the deep factory barrel blue with similar blue on the magazine tube that is starting to mix plum. All excellent markings with correct buckhorn rear sight and matching factory Rocky Mountain blade front sight. The receiver has aged to a pleasing dark slightly mottled patina with good blue on the loading gate. Barrel is correctly marked “Special Smokeless Steel” and the top of the receiver is marked “Marlin Safety.” Excellent crescent butt walnut butt stock and forend show only light handling with no chips or cracks and tight wood to metal fit. Fine bore with good rifling has some light scattered pitting mainly toward the middle of the bore that is not deep or serious. This is a really difficult Marlin model to find these days especially with this much blue!
