Description:
Early-20th Century MARLIN Model 1897 Lever Action .22 TAKEDOWN Rifle C&R
With Part-Octagonal Barrel & Fancy Walnut!
Here we present a Marlin Model 1897 Lever Action .22 Rifle, made circa 1905-1922 in New Haven, Connecticut. This rifle had a production run from 1897 to 1922. Sometime during 1905, Marlin changed the model designation on the tang from “Marlin 1897” to “Marlin 97”, making this rifle post-1905. John Mahlon Marlon, founder of the company, served as a machinist with Colt Patent Firearms of Hartford prior to starting his own firearm manufacturing company in New Haven in 1863 during the American Civil War, where he concentrated primarily on production of small, single shot .22 deringers.
This rifle features a part-octagon/part-round barrel. 2/3 length magazine tube. It has a smooth forearm and a pistol grip stock with lovely grain. The front sight is a Lyman.
The overall condition is very good. Original blue finish/patina. The action remains strong. The bore is bright with good rifling. The stock is beautiful and solid. A beautiful Marlin!
