RM 1894 .44, just came in yesterday. Can’t wait to break it in

From all I have seen, Ruger has done a wonderful job of bringing back Marlin. The guns look better than anything Marlin ever did in the past! Of course, now you can't buy one that isn't over a thousand bucks! I remember when I was a kid every year after hunting season I could go in to any pawn shop in the town I lived in and buy a Marlin for usually less than 200 bucks, and a Winchester for about 50 bucks more! It's really hard for me to even contemplate they sell for what they do now.

Good looking lever, let us know how it handles and shoots.

Congratulations! That 1894 is a beautiful rifle! And of course it is in the perfect caliber! With conventional rifling, it should be good for both jacketed and cast lead bullets! Sincerely. bruce.

I picked one up about a month ago & it has very nice wood on it also. I looked it over hard for the fitting of the wood the bluing finish. I am impressed with quality! Great Job Ruger!
