Lever-action rifles remain a cornerstone for shooters who value mechanical simplicity, rapid follow-up shots, and traditional handling. For operators and enthusiasts looking for a ready-to-go package that balances preservation and practicality, there are a few important factors to evaluate: condition, accessory fit, and how the rifle is being sold from inventory.

MARLIN 1894P

This listing is described as “Well kept together no case Loc. G 7347 (SLS FLOOR),” which tells a tactical buyer several things at a glance: the rifle has been maintained as a cohesive unit, it does not include a case, and it is inventoried on the sales floor. That transparency is crucial when evaluating used or consignment firearms. The MARLIN 1894P is offered at $1,289.99, a price point that places it in the premium lever-action category for collectors and field shooters.

Build and practical considerations

The listing indicates Brand: Marlin and Model: Various, so expect factory variations and potential aftermarket add-ons across examples. Given the “well kept together” note, check the action timing, lever-to-bolt engagement, and overall headspace at the counter. The lack of a case reduces overall carrying protection but can make immediate inspection and hands-on testing simpler during purchase.

Shop this product to view current inventory photographs and verify accessory fit and finish before committing.

Field use and mounting

While this specific entry lists no caliber in the description, that absence is a reminder to confirm chambering and ammo compatibility in person. Lever actions are commonly used for fast, short- to mid-range work—small- to medium-game hunting, ranch use, and defensive scenarios where quick follow-ups are valuable. Confirm whether sights are factory or aftermarket and whether the receiver is drilled/tapped for optics if you plan to mount a scope or reflex sight.

Given the Marlin legacy, buyers should expect solid roller- or tang-mounted sights, easy manual operation, and predictable handling. Because this unit is on the SLS floor, you can request a close inspection and dry-cycling to validate mechanical condition.

Buying checklist and next steps

Before purchase, verify: serial and inventory location (Loc. G 7347), mechanical function, absence of a case, and the exact model/caliber stamped on the barrel. The $1,289.99 price reflects the rifle’s condition and market tier—confirm whether the asking price includes any in-store adjustments or transfer fees.
