CONDITION: Excellent, retaining 98% plus original blue finish on the barrel and magazine with thinning on the balance. The
receiver retains 95% plus vivid original case colors. The hammer, lever, takedown collar and buttplate retain 85% original case
colors. The wood is very fine with a shallow divot on the right side of the wrist, some minor handling marks, and most of the
original varnish remaining. Mechanically excellent. A fabulous antique Marlin Model 1894 takedown rifle that will make a
grand statement to any lever action collection.
