TACK DECORATED Antique J.M. MARLIN M1894 Lever Action .32-20 WCF Rifle
NATIVE AMERICAN Style Rifle in RIFLE/PISTOL Caliber
Here we present an antique Tack Decorated Native American Style J.M. Marlin Model 1894 Rifle in .32-20 WCF, made in 1895 in New Haven, Connecticut. Marlin was one of Winchester’s biggest competitors for the lever action market in the late-19th and into the 20th Century. Originally patented on August 1, 1893 by L.L. Hepburn, the 1894 featured a new locking bolt and two-piece firing pin, alongside an improved one-piece trigger and a short receiver that allowed cartridge compatibility with the 1888 and 1889 models. It features a solid top frame with side ejection and a smooth action.
The Model 1894 and its successors found particular favor in Canada, Alaska, and the Pacific Northwest, where precipitation combined with cold temperatures sometimes caused top-eject designs to freeze solid. During the Klondike Gold Rush, the solid-top Marlin design was preferred by many prospectors facing subzero temperatures and dangerous animals, since the solid top frame was better at keeping freezing rain, snow and dirt out of the operating parts of the action.
This nice lever action rifle from Marlin paired up with your .32 caliber Colt would have been very handy out on the range!
The overall condition is good. Original brown patina. The stock and forend have less than expected wear for the age. Hand graffiti on the buttstock is difficult to ascertain, legible markings otherwise. Dimmed bore with serviceable rifling. Strong action.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 24 inches.
Caliber: .32 Winchester Center Fire (WCF)
