Saw this posted on Youtube, which can sometimes be sketchy depending on the person doing the video. He claims it's a rifle built by Marlin in .32-40 that is one of a kind prototype. Has anyone ever heard of this rifle, and is it really made by Marlin?

Marlin lever actions 1870's-WWI, Ballards, and single shot rifles!

Re: Is it a prototype Marlin?
Vall;
The action works more like a '94 Winchester than any Marlin. Maybe Winchester was attempting to make a side ejecting action and needed Marlin to approve the design so that it would not be a patent infringement.

Due to the increasing cost of ammunition, there will be no warning shot!
