I just bought the checkered 1895 on gunbroker, item #736031210. Can't figure out how to copy GB's pics so I can reproduce them here. They won't accept my C&R and I can't convince them that it's an antique that doesn't require any C&R. David

That is a smoking beautiful gun David. I tip my hat to you on that one.

Good question. My 1895 with the factory case hardened receiver and higher grade wood didn't letter either. The numbers match on it and it has two Marlin stamps on the barrel. David

I was just clueless about it. 22" barrel, checkering, bluing, everything. Just clueless.

It will be displayed at Ogden the first weekend in March and Denver the third weekend in May.
The wood would have been done at Marlin.
I can't afford LeRoy's 1895 but I will contact him to see if he'll let me use his pics. David

I'm glad you got it. I saw that on gunbroker and was hoping someone from here would get it.

I saw this one but didn't recognize the checkering as a factory pattern - I thought it was new checking on replacement stocks, with a short barrel. Nice buy!

Short rifles weren't cataloged. I hope someone didn't whack the barrel. It should be on it's way tomorrow. David
