Antique MARLIN Model 1891 LEVER ACTION .22 Caliber Rimfire REPEATING Rifle Favorite Rifle of ANNIE OAKLEY Made in 1891
Description: Antique MARLIN Model 1891 LEVER ACTION .22 Caliber Rimfire REPEATING Rifle Favorite Rifle of ANNIE OAKLEY Made in 1891 Here we present an antique J.M. Marlin Model 1891 Rifle chambered in .22 Caliber Rimfire, made in 1891 in New Haven, Connecticut. John Marlin produced his first lever action repeating rifle in 1881. Ten years later, Marlin introduced his first rimfire lever action rifle, the Model 1891, based on a design patented by John Marlin’s collaborator and employee, Lewis Hepburn. The first variation had a solid top receiver and loaded through a gate on the right side, similar to the Marlin Model 1889. The Model 1891 was the gun that Annie Oakley used in her early shooting matches that made her so famous. Her Model 1891 was chambered for .22 rimfire, just like this one. This example is the second variation of the Model 1891 that has the tubular magazine. The top barrel flat is marked with the two-line address/patent dates, including the March 1, 1892, date. The Model 1891 serial numbers didn’t start with “0”. Research indicates that serial numbers as low as 47,889 are known and go as high as 77,943 with a total of 18,643 manufactured during its production run between 1891 and 1897. It was made in both the straight stock and the 1/2 pistol grip style stock. The overall condition is good. Refinished. The barrel has been sleeved. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The action (hammer/trigger) is strong. Feeding is a bit finicky. The stock shows wear and some minor repairs and is otherwise solid. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 24 inches. Caliber: .22 S, L, LR Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1100 #226868 SOLD Antique: Yes |
