I dug out this Marlin 1894 octagonal barrel in .44 magnum today. Only made in 1973 with total production at 2,957. The barrel is 20".
I threw in some accessories for the fun of it and a little 'Ted' for the hard rockers on the forum.
The stag knife is Solingen, the switch blades are Schrade Cut Co., and the Marlin anniversary knife is Camillus.
Nice rifle! I’ve got 1894 Cowboys in .357 (24” Octagon bbl) & .45 Colt (20” Octagon bbl) and an 1897 Cowboy (.22LR). The only .44 Magnum Marlin I have is the 1894 I bought new in 1977 (20” round bbl). I have found Marlin lever actions to be addicting.
