Marlin’s First Smokeless Powder Rifle

Here Ancestry Guns presents a C&R J.M. Marlin Model 93 Rifle chambered in .30-30 Winchester, made circa 1921-23 in New Haven, Connecticut. Marlin Firearms was founded in the 1870s by John Marlin and was one of Winchester’s biggest competitors for the lever action market in the late-19th and into the 20th Century. Marlin produced a large assortment of firearms such as lever-action rifles, pump-action shotguns and single shot rifles. The Model 1893 represents Marlin’s first smokeless powder lever action rifle. It features a solid top frame with side ejection and a smooth action. The barrel is a round medium weight of 26 inches, chambered in the .30-30 WIN cartridge.

The Model 1893 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 fine. Much of the original finish is preserve on the barrel and magazine tube. The frame consists of light gray and brown patinas. Semi-bright bore with strong rifling. Both the stock and forend have been refinished and remain in good shape with average wear. Markings are legible. Upgraded front bead with a loop behind the bead to let a little light through and have some contrast, which is a neat feature.
