Marlin model 1893 30-30, long rifle, octogon barrel, matching numbers on forearm, stock and reciever. Folk art checkering on forearm. Folkart carving of deer and bear on stock. No doubt the furniture was refinished after carving. Blue is as fine as could ever be expected on any rifle this age. If it was reblued, it was done before I got it. Straight shooter and very functional when last fired way back when in my teens. I got it from a widower in the mid 60's. Serial No. 159804. Might be as fine an original model 93 as you will ever find.
Got to ammend that last line. Did some research and found one someone had listed for $21,500. An original jewel. A few others better than mine for $2500 to $4500. Those are asking prices. I did see several sold for over $1000 that were round barrel or carbines or typical, not nearly as good as mine. So, let's say $1500 for mine.
And one more detail. This is NOT a take down model.
