SCARCE MARLIN MODEL 1889 .44-40 OCTAGON RIFLE, #97XXX, MADE 1894.
Description: SCARCE MARLIN MODEL 1889 .44-40 OCTAGON RIFLE, #97XXX, MADE 1894. This was Marlin's first side-eject rifle that was only made in limited numbers for a few years before being replaced with the updated Model 1894. Easily identified by the frame "hump" in front of the trigger and the lever catch, the Model 1889 was made in .32-20, .38-40 and .44-40, with the latter being the most difficult to find and most desirable. This example shows good aged blue mixing with some gray and brown on the 24" barrel. The mag tube is mainly gray. The receiver is mixing very aged blue with gray/brown and shows some signs of light rust that was wiped off- minor. Exc. markings, lever catch intact (these often missing), fine stock and forend with tight wood to metal fit and one shallow flaked/chip behind the lower tang. Tight action and fine bore that is a little dark with strong rifling and what appears to be some old leading in the grooves midway in the bore- should brush out- much better bore than usually encountered. Buckhorn rear sight with elevator bar intact and Lyman "Jack" front sight (half-moon with ivory bead). Strong safety half-cock on the hammer. These are hard to find and this is an attractive example in the most desirable caliber. SOLD Antique: Yes Rifle Caliber: .44-40 Winchester Manufacturer: MARLIN Model: 1889 OCT. RIFLE Serial Number: 97XXX Barrel Length: 24" OCTAGON Condition: VG Bore Condition: FINE+ |
