Now that's some lever porn. I might have a new addition next week

2 A had one of these Taylor's Alaskans 44 mag in stock. I had a hard time deciding between the two. If I would have had the money, I would have bought that too!

I like those guns but frankly cant bring myself to purchase at the current price point. The finish is nice for a "hand pick" Chiappa but expensive. $1100 for a rubberized wood stock and a takedown is highway robbery.

If they were closer $800 to $900 would be a more reasonable proposition.

They are competing against the Trails End takedowns which are about $1100 to $1200.

I understand your point. I would have liked it better if it had a real wood stock but I can see why they did the rubber coating. This gun is meant to be taken into the woods...a lot. This thing has a smooth action, I'll give it that.

Thought you bought the 73?

The Taylor/Chiappa 94s are ok as noted above, just not at the price point. If I was kayaking I would probably consider one. As for taken into the woods, lots of plain steel Winchester 94s have been taken into the woods a lot too, little care, little oil it will last a couple generations.

Not knocking em, just overpriced for what they are.

Johnthetoolguy · Mar 5, 2016

Yes, I bought the 1873. I tried the action on the Chiappa. It was smooth. That's all I was trying to say. As for price, it was cheaper than the Winchester I did buy.

You got a real nice piece. Ive seen a few, good stuff.

Hopefully tomorrow I will have a pre-63 94 in .32 Special joining my collection.

Johnthetoolguy · Mar 5, 2016

I've had a couple of 94s. One was a pre 64 but I had to sell it to buy something else back in the day. I was quite a bit younger, limited funds, and had not yet learned NOT to sell anything I had bought! I miss that rifle and the 94 Trapper I had. Oh well.

Jimbob2.0 · Mar 6, 2016

Got my 1941 94, 32 special its got some minor wear but very clean. Now I need to get my .38-55

Working on pics, receiver 85% or better, lever is probably 40%. Nice gun overall.

Thank you.

My Marlin collection:

Pictured top to bottom:
Marlin 36-RC in 30-30 manufactured 1945
Marlin 336-SC in 30-30 manufactured 1958
Marlin 1894 .44 Rem Mag manufactured 1981
Marlin 39A in .22 manufactured 1946
Marlin Glenfield Mod 60 in .22 manufactured 1977
Marlin 15 YN in .22 manufactured 2000

Please excuse the butt pads, those were from when my son was younger. The 1894 is showing several battle scars. I purchased it that way for $175 from White Marsh Arms several years ago. It was a DNR seized firearm.

Marlin 336C 30-30 win. This is an older pic. I recently put a Nikon on it with a one piece mount. Much better set up now, but I still need to get it to the range.
