Congratulations!

Nice '92.

Love levers and the .44 is a fantastic caliber in one. The extra barrel adds as much as 500fps to the velocity, so that means that at 100 yards the bullet is moving faster than it is at the muzzel of a revolver.

Here's mine, a pre crossbolt 1971 manufactured Marlin 1894 in .44.



Also have a 45-70, but that's a whole 'nuther story.



Best way to describe the 45-70 is to understand that its been turning cover into concealment since 1870.
