Need help with info

Post by rdub1 »

I have Marlin with a serial number of 97395. What caliber might this be and when was it made. I think the year is 1894. It was gifted to me with no information.

Rdub1;

Factory records show that serial number 97395 is a Model 1893. It was shipped in late 1893 in .32-40 caliber in a 26 inch octagon barrel.
Due to the increasing cost of ammunition, there will be no warning shot!

The growing federal deficit = generational slavery to the national debt.

If the world was perfect.......it wouldn't be.
