A buddy of mine has a Model 94 XTR that he purchased when he was working for Chrysler Corp.It is a typical XTR and inletted into the right side of the buttstock is a medallion which reads "1984 Dodge Marksman Corporate Edition". He has the original box and papers, but I don't know whether or not the gun has ever been fired. Any information about this gun and its current value would be appreciated.

I cannot give you specifics on that particular rifle, but as a group the private issue "corporate" rifles don't have anymore value than the standard catalog rifles in the same condition/configuration. I know Blue Book doesn't list values for them (like they do for the limited run Winchester issued commemoratives). I think the corporate rifles fall into the category of "value is what someone will pay you for it" class. If a person worked for Chrysler, or has an affinity of Chrysler merchandise, then it may be worth a premium to them. Odessa

I found one listed at "auction" ... 1 0f 1000, NIB, no price given.
Also found one listed on Guns America ... 99%, New, Unfired, No Box, $650.

I have a lever gun that was made in 1929 (marlin 93 style)that was given to you free if you bought depression stock in Marlin guns.
It's a five shot lever acion 410 shot-gun(never sold to the public)and only says Marlin Mod 410 on the tang.

That one may be worth something because of it's uniqueness and age. How much over a standard model? See Odessa's post above.
