I have been eyeballing a Marlin Mod 90 16 ga for awhile, but I don't know if I like the gap between the barrels . I think they are asking $500.00 for it!
I have never seen one of the combo guns made by Marlin. Plenty made by Savage Stevens. !!
After 60+ years, I would think I would have seen one. I have handled a Marlin lever action 410 (old one) though.
Do you think $500.00 is too high for the one I mentioned above?
It depends entirely on condition. If it's very straight, and the stock's not cut it is worth $500.00. There is getting to be some collector interest in the Marlin 90s.
I agree on the value. The 16ga usually brings a little bit of a premium over a 12ga.
Personally, I am not a fan of the separated barrels either.
The earlier Model 90s did not have the separated barrels. Marlin started around 1950 with separated barrels(IIRC).
