Marlin Model 1894

Small Arms And Sidearms

The Marlin Model 1894 is a lever-action repeating rifle introduced in 1894 by the Marlin Firearms Company of North Haven, Connecticut. At its introduction the rifle carried a 24 inch barrel and was chambered for a range of pistol cartridge rounds, including .25-20 Winchester, .32-20 Winchester, .38-40 and .44-40. Variants in other chamberings remain in production today. Though it shares a similar name and the same lever-action layout, the Marlin 1894 is a distinct design from the Winchester Model 1894.
