Long Gun Preacher Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 I am getting out of 357/38 and am reluctantly selling my Marlin Cowboy Competition in 38. Sp. It comes with original box and leather wrap. It is in excellent condition with only some freckling on one side of buttstock, probably from a cart. Octagonal barrel and case colored receiver. Factory lever throw very smooth. I replaced the sights with a Marbles Bullseye and red front sight and will include the original sights. 1450 includes shipping from my ffl to yours.

Widder, SASS #59054 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I didn't know that the factory produced a 'short stroke' in .38 Comp model. Interesting! ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlOvera Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Marlin never had a "factory" short stroke. All the internals are the same on the .38/.357 rifles, comp or not. Al Clarification: "Comp" rifles had 3 turns ground off the football mainspring and the point of the lever lock rounded off, others didn't.

Long Gun Preacher Posted August 6, 2022 Author Share Posted August 6, 2022 Gentlemen-thank you for pointing out the error ALOvera is correct. It is not a shortstroke-It is that in the factory the lever throw was smoothed out in this version. That being said, the lever throw is quite smooth. The error was not intentional and I appreciate the correction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
