MODEL ’93 SPORTING CARBINE, .32 SPECIAL, WITH RARE MARLIN FIREARMS CORPORATION BARREL MARKING
Description: SELDOM SEEN MODEL ’93 SPORTING CARBINE IN .32 SPECIAL CALIBER, #8XXX WITH SHORT-LIVED MARLIN FIREARMS CORPORATION BARREL MARKING FOUND ON GUNS ONLY FROM 1922-1924. The Sporting Carbine M-93 was introduced in 1923, so with this barrel address stamping only used for the first full year of production, makes this quite a rare variation and can be dated to that specific time. The Sporting Carbine was last produced by Marlin in 1935 with final shipment made in 1936- no doubt another casualty of the Great Depression. This model came standard with a 20” barrel, 2/3 magazine, straight stock and hard rubber shotgun butt plate. The rear sight was a buckhorn with carbine style front sight. It was produced in .30-30 and .32 Special calibers only, with the .30-30 more common. This example shows fine deep barrel blue, mag tube shows fine blue also with some wear to the sides only. The receiver case colors have faded to a nice mottled gray with some very light color remaining in the most protected areas. The receiver also shows fine blue on the loading gate and has excellent screw heads. Fine butt stock and forend showing only normal handling. Tight action, excellent bore, solid Marlin embossed butt plate. A not often encountered Marlin made in limited numbers and doubly scarce with the "Marlin Firearms Corporation” barrel stamping that was only used until 1924! SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Rifle Caliber: .32 Winchester Special Manufacturer: MARLIN Model: MOD. 93 Serial Number: 8XXX Barrel Length: 20 Condition: FINE Bore Condition: EXC. |
