MARLIN MODEL 1889 IN DESIRABLE .44-40 CALIBER, 24” ROUND BARREL, #68XXX, MADE 1892
Description: MODEL 1889 IN DESIRABLE .44-40 CALIBER, 24” ROUND BARREL, #68XXX, MADE 1892. This was Marlin’s first side eject model and was quickly replaced within a few years by the famed Model 1894. Of the 55,072 made in all calibers, 20,934 were made in .44-40. It seems most of these early Marlins saw hard frontier usage and it is difficult to find one today in better than hard-used and beat-up condition. This example shows use, but no abuse. The butt stock and forearm show light handling with good wood to metal fit. Buckhorn rear sight probably an old replacement, original Rocky Mountain blade front sight. Overall, the metal surfaces are an aged, but uncleaned brown patina, tight action with good half-cock and surprisingly fine+ bore that is a little dark with strong rifling all the way through and any roughness very light and scattered- should brush out even better. Lever catch is intact. The Model 1889 is much more scarce than the later Model 1894. Nice appearance on this frontier used Marlin .44-40. This one turned up in Arizona. SOLD Antique: Yes Manufacturer: MARLIN Model: 1889 Serial Number: 68XXX Caliber Info: .44-40 Condition: VG+ Barrels: 24" ROUND |
