Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Produced for a brief window between 1983 and 1988, the Marlin Model 1894 M holds a legendary place among lever-action rimfire collectors. Scaled specifically to accommodate the punchy .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire (.22 WMR) cartridge in Marlin's famed solid-top 1894 receiver, the 1894 M delivered the handling dynamics of a classic Western carbine with the flat trajectory and varmint-stopping power of a magnum rimfire. Built at Marlin's original North Haven, Connecticut facility and stamped with the iconic "JM" barrel proof, short-run production models like the 1894 M have become prized treasures for Marlin purists.
This exact rifle, serial number 16041414, was manufactured in 1984. Chambered in .22 WMR with a full-length tubular magazine, it features a 20.5-inch Micro-Groove barrel, high-lustre factory blued finish, smooth American walnut straight-grip stock, hooded front sight, semi-buckhorn rear sight, and crisp lever action lockup. It comes equipped with a period-correct, high-quality Japanese-made Western Field 3-9x33mm variable magnification optic (Model 60-1229) on a solid weaver base. Presenting in excellent original condition throughout with deep bluing, rich wood grain, smooth action travel, and a mirror-bright bore, this 1984 Marlin Model 1894 M is a standout addition for lever-action collectors, varmint hunters, or "JM" Marlin purists.
