The Marlin Model 1894 is an iconic lever action rifle originally patented in August 1893 by L. L. Hepburn. When introduced in 1894 an ad claimed “In the Model 1894 rifle, every desirable feature of the 1889 is retained and the improvements suggested by five more years of experience and experiment are added.” A newspaper article dated November 17, 1894 mentioned the Model 1894 repeater was now chambered in .25.-20. This rifle became a favorite among cowboys, farmers and hunters across North America and continues to be a desired firearm among cowboy action shooters.
