Description:
MARLIN MODEL '93 CARBINE, .30-30 CALIBER, #3XX WITH SCARCE "MARLIN FIREARMS CORPORATION" BARREL MARKING, MADE 1922-1924. According to the Marlin book by Brophy, this marking was only used for the years shown after which the usual "Marlin Firearms Company" marking was used. This carbine retains the earlier style "S" steel butt plate and has the early, traditional ladder carbine sight with slide (later replaced with the buckhorn variety). This is a fine example with fine lightly fading case colors on the receiver sides and top with some silvering toward the forward portion on the right side and bolt. There are two receiver sight drilled and tapped holes on the left side for a typical Lyman-style sight that may or may not be factory- both holes have filler screws. Fine deep barrel, magazine and loading gate blue. The lever shows some case color remaining on the sides. Exc. walnut stock and forearm with tight wood to metal fit. Has the "star" stamping on the upper tang that is addressed in Brophy's book from Marlin literature published in 1926-1927, "...when a Marlin gun leaves the factory bearing the marlin star stamped into the metal, it is 'as near perfection as the finest of materials, equipment, and skill can make it.' The star was usually stamped on the top tang of lever action guns..." Tight action with strong safety half-cock on the hammer. Minty bright excellent bore.
