For Sale Marlin 1897 Cowboy

[tarbe]

I've once again totally blown my gun budget and need to move at least one...

Given I have loaded up on rimfire rifles...a rimfire rifle will hit the block.

I got this rifle unfired from a collector. I have put about 100 rounds through it at the range to get the Skinner peep on paper. Of course, I have the box and factory rear sight (they are both in A/C storage in MO as we are selling our house and most of our stuff is out of Texas).

I looked at the last four closed deals on GunBroker and they were kinda all over the map: $2,625; $1,895; $1,550 and $1,950.

I believe my rifle is as clean/valuable as any of them, if not more so. But I also think that $2,625 deal is suspect. I mean...C'mon Man!

The average of the other three sales is $1,798.

I will offer this rifle here for $1,700 OBO, with both sights, FTF. If I have to ship, actual shipping charges apply.

First firm commitment in open forum or PM gets it.

Thanks for looking and I hope this is a fair offer.

Nice looking rifle! I hadn't seen one with the square looking lever before, that's different? Nice long tube - what's the capacity?
Good luck with the sale, should be quick!

24 inch barrel and IIRC 17 LR capacity.

Amish Assault Rifle!

Moderators can close this thread...I have moved the rifle to elsewhere.

thanks,
