Hi all,
Recently bought myself an old classic, a Marlin 1893 .38-55 marked For Black Powder. She’s a six digit s/n (39xxxx) and from my research was made in 1909-1910. The records are somewhat scarce for these models within this date range. Necessary loading accessories are on order and should be all assembled by the end of April. I am very much looking forward to loading with black and tweeking to optomize. Might just take an elk with it this fall…
Anyhow, I will post some pictures once it is fully in hand. Should be middle to end of next week.
