While visiting relatives over the Memorial Day weekend I happened upon a Marlin Cowboy version of the 1894 in .44 Mag sitting on the used gun rack of the Gander Mtn in York PA. Blue with 20" octagon barrel, not a scratch visible.

I've been pondering the purchase of a .44 carbine for some time as I already have two .44 mag revolvers and dies and brass and bullets and you get the picture. After a bit of a glitch with the paperwork the little fellow came home with me.

Now I'm thinking of different bullet weights, new reciever sight, sling , etc, etc...

Glad I have something to play with this Summer.

How much was it?

$480.00

I actually paid less for my Guide Gun. But I bought the 1894 to plink with and I'll probably hunt with the .45-70.

That's a suprisingly reasonable price for a Cabela's used gun.... their prices are usually a bit.... excessive...

I usually learn what to NOT pay by browsing their used rack...

I was down there this afternoon and scored a
Lyman 66LA out of the bargain cave for $30.
It was Missing the mounting screws and the
elevation scale screw was "blurred"

the mounting screws are $1 and the scale screw was $0.50
I already ordered them from Lyman.
