yes quite popular with nearly all lever gun guys.....problem is now..
they are building new ones...RemLin's......not everyone's first choice of course
Save me the research...yours has checkered wood...?....SN begins with ___ first two
determines the mfg date.......the one shown here in pic...I bought from original owner..it was
24"..he chopped it to 20"...never shot it......I always wanted a 16" Marlin Trapper.......so I chopped it again
man its now one handy dandy 45 Colt....I polished all the internals & its a smooth as a baby's butt
Probably is my most fav Marlin Cowboy.....along with my other 45...357 & 44 mags...all others 20"
Pricing ? yep..all over the place.....have the OEM box ? thats a plus to some buyers...but not all....
very desirable Marlin rifle for sure......click link for Marlin mfg date codes.......post a pic.......
gotta be on a fence post.....wood pile.......saddle......price goes up even more !
