Home Forums Lever Action Central Marlin Talk Marlin 1895

45-70, 22" bbl, excellent shape. Gold bead front sight with folding style rear sight. I picked this up thinking to cut the bbl down to 16.25" and case coloring the receiver.

After a brief internet search, I found somewhere that said the B0 prefix serial numbers indicated a more rare rifle. I gave just a shade north of $500 for it.

A date would be great and value even better. I am not sure if this should be altered. Ser # is: B0121xx

Not familiar enough with Marlins. Thank!!!
