Re: Help with an 1893

Fantastic! Thank you!

From what I can tell the magazine looks original. Other than comparing it to similar models, and keeping an eye out for the signs of Bubba, is there anything to look out for?

Thanks so much!

Help with an 1893

Looking at a Model 1893. Chambered in 32-40, serial # is D641. From what basic knowledge I have of these rifles, letter prefix in the serial # indicates it is a later model, except it says Model 1893, which indicates an early model. I am confused on this one. Did not check for a serial # under the l...

Marlin 22lr mfg 1901

I am looking at an older Marlin rimfire 22lr. I am guessing it is either an 1892 or 1897, it has a tang sight and I cannot see if there is a model designation. Would love to know any more information on it. The patent roll marks on the barrel says "Marlin fire arms co. New haven ct USA Pat'd ja...
