    Yep. Same scope too, if it's 1.5x something.

    :) Except mine isn't ported, and it's blued.

    Of course, these are 1895's, but who's counting? :)

    I have two - an 1894 Carbine and an 1894 Cowboy, both in .357 Mag.

    Would like to find a .45 Colt in good shape for a good price.

    Cowboy Action Shooting (which I participate in) has really driven the prices of pre-Remington Marlins in .45 Colt and .357 Mag up. Seems the .44 Mag are still reasonably priced.

    A little older than a '94 but it's been in the family since at least the 1920's.

    yes.....44's are the most reasonable........lots of good ones available....45 Colt & 357's are more $$...

    here's a 45 the original owner had chopped from 24" to 20"...got it NIB & unfired...what I do with them is tear them down...

    polish the innards & make 'em slick as snot......change springs....this one turned out way super slick...2001 mfg...

    No 1894's, but I do have a few lever guns...

    Henry H001T Frontier .22LR


    Marlin 336CS in .30-30


    Winchester 94 Big Bore in .375 Win


    Cimarron 1860 Henry Civil War in .45 Colt



    Sold/traded off my two Savage 99's as I really had no need of them and they lost their allure once I owned one. Guess I was more interested in the chase than the prize on those two.
