Good to hear it holds ten 38's. Hope it cycles well with the 38's. I know some .357's have issues with the shorter cartridges. I'd love to see an octagon barrel version.
I know your pain! I have a Rossi R92, not a bad rifle at all. But the made in America, greatly improved quality, and materials used, and it's a Marlin lever action is greatly appealing!!
@nickcirillo6191 if it were a 16" barrel instead, then yes. But we're talking only a 1.5" difference here. That's not going to translate into any significant increase in maneuverability. Frankly, I'd rather have the extra round.
Hey Steven, I watched your range video on this Rifle. I am curious who made the lever wrap you have on it and the parts you said you swapped out? Would you be able to list those for me? Thank you
I don't know if you have any info on this, but since Marlin 94' parts are scarce, does Ruger have any plans to sell replacement parts for those of us who have original Marlin 1894's?
I bought one of these and sold it the next week. In high anticipation for it, I hand cast/loaded several combinations of .38/.357 plus while at the store, I picked up a couple boxes of .38 just to shoot so I could build up my .38 brass pile. What a huge disappointment this rifle is...I might as well have bought a bolt action or single shot in .38. Chambering .38's was a joke let alone trying to cycle one round after another, did not matter the bullet profile. After fussing and fighting with it, I was finally able to get some rounds down range...I threw them.
Mine showed up and the Allen key for the spur extension came out of the package and gouged the hell out of the butt stock….called marlin and they send a new one no problem. Fast forward a week and I handed it to my friend and first thing he noticed was forearm was cracked right at the barrel band, due to poor QC on assembly. Fit and finish is maybe worse (certainly equal) to the Remington made marlin’s…please note the Remington made versions were 1/2 the cost. I think ruger banked on the hype and basically released the Remington quality manufacturing knowing the hype was to see some fantastically better manufacturing. Serious disappointment to read the story of feeding issues. I was going to sell my jj 44 mag but know I reckon I better keep it and sell the ruger made .357….start searching for a clean Jm in other calibers! #ruger #rugerfirearms #rugermarlin you should be ashamed to put this garbage on the showroom floor! Seriously poor form!

No, inflation has almost exactly tripled across-the-board in prices on everything in the world since 1989, so $1200 is actually the same relative value that men had to work to pay for one in 1989
@Simon-talks the Uberti has not gone up 3x. It's the mid tier gun in It's market. It needs to be velow the top tier in price. Most of inflation is just corporate greed.
Nah, I got mine in the 800's. Excellent quality for that price. I dare you to try and make one of these, anywhere NEAR this quality for less than 600.00(and then to sell it, you need to make a profit.... 1988 called to remind you that it's 2024 and quality lever guns don't cost $350.00 ANYMORE....just like you can't buy a new pickup truck for 6500.00 anymore, or build a new home for 90k anymore like you could in 1988....you're lost in the past...
I love Marlins but im waiting for the CB models. Planning to get a 357 1894 and an 1895.
I think Ruger hit a home run with Marlin lever actions.
Good to hear it holds ten 38's. Hope it cycles well with the 38's. I know some .357's have issues with the shorter cartridges.
I'd love to see an octagon barrel version.
It actually holds 10 357, gotta finagle that last one in there but it works. so 10+1, not bad. I'd assume 1 or 2 more 38 too.
I’m waiting to find a 336 classic in 3030 before I die because it’s taking forever to see them on the shelf in any local stores
Order one online for a transfer to your favorite shop. You'll probably save like $500.
I have one in 38-55 cowboy model in 336 with 24” octagon barrel for sale
I have a Marlin original in pristine condition that I purchased in the early 1990’s for around $350. I love it.
I'd like to see this rifle without a recoil pad , there's not enough kick to warrant it
I just bought a Rossi R92 in .357 about a month ago. I should’ve gotten the marlin
Why? While they are not the elite of the field, they are easily slicked up and run great. Cost is about 1/2 of the Marlin.
Yeah the Marlin is definitely better.
I know your pain! I have a Rossi R92, not a bad rifle at all. But the made in America, greatly improved quality, and materials used, and it's a Marlin lever action is greatly appealing!!
Go get a Marlin and have both!
Rossi rifles are quite popular here in the UK, unfortunately the spare parts are not.
I'm curious if there's a reason they gave this an 18.5" barrel for only 9 rds when the .44 mag version of the same gun got the 20" barrel with 10 rds.
To keep it short and handy as a carbine should be..
@nickcirillo6191 if it were a 16" barrel instead, then yes. But we're talking only a 1.5" difference here. That's not going to translate into any significant increase in maneuverability. Frankly, I'd rather have the extra round.
9 rounds is fine. What can you not hit in 9 rounds that you can hit with 10? This isn't really a go-to-war gun after all, although you could do worse.
Actually I'm Glad For The Difference . I've Got The New 1894 In .44 Magnum Now Waiting for A .357 Caliber 1894 Especially With The 18 1/2 Inch Barrel.
Why the hell did they make it only hold 9 rounds?
As far as I'm conserned only a Marlin built before December 2007 is a real Marlin!
As far as I'm concerned only a Marlin made before 1915 when the Marlin family sold out is a real Marlin!
Hey Steven, I watched your range video on this Rifle. I am curious who made the lever wrap you have on it and the parts you said you swapped out? Would you be able to list those for me? Thank you
Can you put a large loop lever on it?
Yes
Give a pull rearward on the stock. The three I held today at scheels moved rearward
Hi.
What spring kit did you use to tune the 1894c in the subsequent video?
Looking to do the same.
Thanks
whats the air pressure have to be set at to shoot that rifle
Talo exclusive 1894 in .41 mag
I don't know if you have any info on this, but since Marlin 94' parts are scarce, does Ruger have any plans to sell replacement parts for those of us who have original Marlin 1894's?
Can 38 spec be fired thru the rifle
Yes, It can take up to ten rounds of 38 special. A very nice rifle!

My new one in .44 was same. Had to get a skinner after market sight to get point if aim. Rounds hung up in cartridge carrier half way out of magazine.

How old was Aisha when her wedding was consummated?

How pathetic infidels of nowadays when they're trying to be smarter than infidels of Back then👀
They missed the right price point by about $400
Whole heartedly agree. 🤙🏻
No, it's no longer 1989 anymore..
@Simon-talks they were about $450 in 89...600 700 is the right price point today. For this price, better off with an uberti.

The price of theses new marlins is bullshit

The Henry you can get the same thing for 400 and 60 dollars 💲💵 in 357 /38 sp 😮😮😮😠😠
BS.......The Henrys cost way more than that. The Henrys run 800 to 900.
Yeah, but then you have a Henry, not a Marlin, and *nobody* wants a Henry.
