Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: MARLINN 1893 .30-30 OCTAGON RIFLE, #D4XXX, MADE PRE-1905. Marlin began the change from stamping their rifles "1893" to "Model 93" in 1905. There seems to be some confusion about when the letter prefixes began, so one can only go by features. This one has the early "MODEL 1893" marking on the upper tang and has the early crescent butt plate. Later examples have the "S" or carbine shaped butt plate. Either way, this one dates to the early part of the 20th century. The receiver is mainly a mottled gray/brown with some good blue on the loading gate. "MARLIN SAFETY" marked receiver top along with "SPECIAL SMOKELESS STEEL" on the barrel side. Barrel shows good aged blue with excellent markings and buckhorn rear sight with elevator bar intact and correct Rocky Mountain blade front sight. Mag tube blue thinning. Stock and forend show normal handling with tight wood to metal fit. Tight action, strong safety half-cock on the hammer. Exc. bore is only a little dark. A solid 120 year old Marlin 1893.
