Flaco Joe

This is a vintage Marlin model ‘94 in .44-40. Factory records are sketchy for Marlins but the best guess is somewhere around 1912 to 1915 production. The finish is worn almost to white, and I suspect someone “cleaned” it to make it that way. But it is in perfect working order and I have shot it at several matches. It is not as smooth as a slicked—up modern gun, but it functions well. The bore is rust free but has some shallow pitting. It is hitting to point of aim with my cowboy loads. Wood is in good condition with some dings but no cracks. Overall, she’s in fine condition for her age. This would make a great gun for Classic Cowboy or Frontier Cartridge. Or just a great addition to a collection. $850 shipped to your FFL. SPF

Thanks Dilli. I started my search on that site and found other scopes exactly like the one I have, but I’d like to find something newer.

I have a pre-WW1 Mauser in 8x57J that has a 1950s-era Lyman Challenger 4X scope with a 26mm tube. There is an issue with the scope that I cannot sort and I would like to replace it with a modern scope. The scope rings are a custom job on a quick-release base. The rings are in good condition and impossible to replace anyway, so I want to fit a new scope to them. I am not able to find a modern scope with 26mm tubes. I am hoping a European company makes them today, or I would like a technical solution to adapt a 1 scope to the 26mm rings. Maybe an adapter shim? I’d appreciate a chance to speak with someone that knows about vintage scopes and/or European scopes and can give me advice. Thanks

Thanks for the offer, Ridge, but he has two already and isn’t seeking another.

BTT - Two of the original three guns have sold. The 1849 is still available.

Thanks Ridge. I’ll tell my dad and see if he’s interested.

Thanks Dude!

BTT one more time before it goes to Gun Broker.

Thanks Pete. PM sent

This is a Lee single-stage reloading press. It is an older model, but it has never been used, never even screwed down to a bench. So it is an old-new one. It is in perfect working order. $60 shipped SOLD
