Unlike the Model 1893, that didn't get the rollstamp changed until after WWI, the 1894 got changed around 1906 era. The end of the Model '94 marked Marlins was around the mid 1930's. No exact dates for all this as the catalog changes is all we have for reference.

Yours is one of the 94's built after the '94 was reintroduced by Marlin. Afraid my area of interest is much earlier, and I'm not up on these newer guns. Hopefully someone can help you with this era Marlin.

Amishjeff;

Your Marlin was made during the period that Remington owned the Marlin brand. Check the post under this section titled Remington/Marlin serial numbers to find the information you seek.
Due to the increasing cost of ammunition, there will be no warning shot!
