Antique J.M. MARLIN Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle .44-40 WCF OCTAGONAL BARREL COWBOY, WILD WEST, HEPBURN
Description: Antique J.M. MARLIN Model 1894 Lever Action Rifle .44-40 WCF OCTAGONAL BARREL COWBOY, WILD WEST, HEPBURN Here we present an antique J.M. Marlin Model 1894 Rifle in .44-40 WCF, made in 1894 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. These would have been a fantastic companion to the Colt Single Action Army Revolver in the same chambering, just as was the Winchester Models 1873 & 1892, Marlin’s primary competition. 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. The overall condition is very good. Even patina throughout. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with strong rifling. The stock shows use and has some minor stable splits and is solid throughout. A very nice antique Marlin Model 1894 in .44! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 24 inches. Caliber: .44-40 Winchester Center Fire (WCF) Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2400 #247592 Antique: Yes Price: $2,400.00 Buy Now Pay with
