Marlin 1894 Octagon JM rifle

Description:
The Holy Grail of  the1894 Marlin JM .44 Magnum Octagon barreled rifles is now available.  This rifle is the highly sought after hard to find 1973 Pre-Crossbolt safety model which in itself is a rarity, but beyond that this one went to Doug Turnbull for case coloring and blueing!.  Not only that, but my gunsmith created an integrated top rail that accomodates the included 1" Kimber rings.  It also works with Talley QD Rings (not included but readily available).  Adjustable tang peep sight and a high gloss finish stock top it off.  Check the targets.  This one is a shooter!  Groups shown were fired with a 4X scope (not included). The JM stamp is not visible on the barrel so either it was polished off during the Turnbull work or it is under the forearm (I don't want to remove the forearm for fear of scratching the beautiful barrel blue).  I contacted the Marlin Firearms Collectors Association supplying them the serial number and a Distinguished Expert with that organization responded "Rest assured, your Marlin Model 1894 was made by Marlin and NOT Remington.  The JM mark may be under the forearm or Turnbull buffed it off.  You are correct, it is a 1973 gun". If it is not as advertised I will refund your money as long as the rifle is returned in its' original condition. Shipping will add $65.00.  If you want the ultimate 1894 Octagon Marlin look no further!
