Description:
1893 SADDLE RING CARBINE, .30-30 CALIBER, #A7XXX, MADE APPROX. 1910. There seems to be a lot of confusion as to when the Model 1893 became the Model '93. Brophy's standard reference says this happened in 1905, but I believe it was later. This one has the earlier tang marking "MODEL 1893." All of the 1893 saddle ring carbines are pretty scarce and aren't seen often. Later carbines without the saddle ring are more common, although still scarce items. This is a fine example that retains nearly all the barrel and magazine blue with only a few minor wear points. The receiver case colors have faded to a dark mottled gray with case color remaining in the most protected small areas- like under the lever and around the saddle ring etc. Has some blue left on the loading gate, exc. markings including the Marlin Safety stamping on the receiver top and all the barrel markings. Walnut stock and forearm are excellent with tight wood to metal fit and only the most minor handling marks. Correct carbine butt plate and ladder carbine rear sight with slide intact. Tight action, strong hammer spring with solid safety half-cock, bore appears to have a little leading in it that should brush out to exc.- fine rifling throughout. These saddle ring 1893s are getting very difficult to find.
