*MARLIN MODEL ’94 LEVER ACTION RIFLE. SN 433608. Cal. 25-20. Standard grade rifle with 24″ tapered rnd bbl, full magazine, German silver Rocky Mountain front sight and semi-buckhorn rear sight. Mounted with nicely figured, uncheckered, straight grain American walnut with straight stock & smooth steel semi-crescent buttplate. These small bore rifles were generally considered to be less than adequate big game rifles, therefore they were usually relegated to varmint & garden pest guns or small game rifles for ladies & young boys. As such they were simple working tools and most often were inadequately cared for and usually are found showing hard use and little orig finish. PROVENANCE: Wes Adams Estate Collection. CONDITION: Extremely fine plus, possibly unfired, retaining virtually all of its orig factory finish on the bolt face & loading gate; bbl, magazine tube & forend cap retain virtually all of their brilliant orig factory blue with only faint sharp edge wear on forend cap; receiver retains about 98% brilliant case colors; hammer retains about all of its orig blue and the lever virtually all of its orig dark case colors; buttplate retains 88-90% strong orig blue with wear at the heel & toe; wood is sound with only a very few, scattered light nicks & dings and retains virtually all of its orig factory varnish. Mechanics are crisp, brilliant shiny bore. 4-44630 JR470 (5,000-8,000)
