Heck, that ought to go a long way toward some stock work. I have an 1894 Limited 44 Mag in the same configuration that does not see a whole lot of use that I am tempted to do the same with.
It did.
In the past few years I have learned the wisdom of hanging onto firearms not currently being used since I will want them again sooner or later. But having looked at what a prior sale of this model fetched on gunbroker - a big pile of money, far more than I ever would have guessed - and looking at the upcoming stock bill, the temptation was too great.
They are unique little rifles and about as perfectly suited to fast "thumping" as one can get, so it was a sacrifice to know I will almost certainly never see another in my possession, but the prices for used JM Marlins are going through the roof. They may or may not be increased by the current panic buying, I haven't been keeping track enough to know for sure. But if you are thinking of selling yours the market is there. Mine had noticeable flaws and I still more than doubled my money on it in 3 years.
That's what prompted me to see what mine would bring. Here's the link to that one.
