Prettiest CAS Rifle - Marlin 1894 Century Limited .44-40

[Tuolumne Lawman]

It was one of my first CAS rifles (1996) and still a favorite.  Marlin 1894 Century Limited .44-40.  Real bone color case hardened, fully engraved receiver by Doug Turnbull, Beautiful walnut stock with some fiddle-back type figuring, and deadly accurate.  Best of all, it is MINE!

Yup...  very pretty!  I like my Yellow Boy though.  It's the sporting rifle version with the 24+ inch barrel.  Caliber 44-40.

I think that's just AWESOME!  (Not a word I use very often.)

And I don't even like Marlins.

 Wow, beautiful job on that rifle!

When I was younger and made more money, I wanted to have the 45-70 1895 Century and the 22 1897 Century.  Ain't going to happen in this life, but I am dang happy to have the 1894!

Beautiful rifle! Real pride of ownership there. I'm glad that you actually shoot it. Such a rifle as a wall hanger would be a travesty.

I just ran across a NIB Browning Centennial B92. Great wood, nice engraving. I'm trying to convince myself that I 'need' it. Going to be an uphill fight as my wife and I already own Plain Jane B92s.

I'd go for the Browning.  You will kick yourself later if you don't.  I kicked my self when I traded the Century off, and happy to have traded to get it back.  Post pics if you get it.

Cherish that thing, TL. They don't make'em like that anymore( Literally!)

I've got a CBC with the case colors and teally like it

That is a real purty rifle!!!!!    The color case hardening is awesome (as is the rest of the rifle).
