What’s Included
- Marlin Model 1894CB Cowboy .32 H&R Magnum lever-action rifle
The 20-inch octagonal steel barrel and six-groove rifling (1:16" RH) pair with the .32 H&R Magnum chambering for a classic Cowboy configuration. The full-length tubular magazine uses a removable inner tube and provides a 10+1 capacity.
The solid-top, side-eject steel receiver is blued and includes a cross-bolt safety with a red witness ring. The top of the receiver is factory drilled and tapped and fitted with plug screws.
Sighting is traditional and practical: a dovetailed blade front with brass bead and a semi-buckhorn rear that is elevator-adjustable and dovetailed. These iron sights complement the rifle’s intended use and period-correct styling.
Stocked in straight-wrist walnut, this 1894 Cowboy wears a black checkered Marlin logo buttplate and a matching fore-end with a fore-end cap. Length of pull measures 13.25 inches, and overall fit and finish are the classic blued-steel-and-walnut combination.
Marked with the JM barrel proof and a North Haven, Connecticut barrel address, this rifle was manufactured in 2005 in the United States as part of the 1894 Cowboy series.
