? What years were "pre-RemMarlington" Marlin lever rifles? [Edit] Model '94 in .357
.
Ever since I shot a (recently-manufactured) .357 ReMarlington lever, I've wanted one for my own. I have a line on a "pre-ReMarlington" Marlin Model [Edit" Model '94] in .357 that appears to be in fine condition save for a couple bad knicks in the forend furniture. Saddle-ring, side-eject. I put a deposit on it.
[Edit: 10-17-12
I visited the rifle today at my local gun shop. It was indeed mislabeled. With my limited knowledge of most leverguns, I thought I'd stumbled onto something even "neater" than it is. I have a Win '94 in .30WCF, been wanting a '92, but it looks like I'll have to have it in a Winchester. Meanwhile, I'm going ahead with the purchase of this Marlin, 'cause I've also wanted a .357-chambered lever carbine.]
What can the Marlin lever cognoscenti tell me? Thank you very much! in advance.
