A 95 you looked up for me a while ago, was a 40-82 with a short barrel, that looked good, but was cut down and I contacted auction house, they didn't respond and sold it as a rare shortie for around 3000+.

Re: Special smokeless steel

I have not seen one, but it is possible. The 30-30 was a smokeless and Marlin states in catalogs all barrels are Smokeless Steel. In early catalogs Marlins states all model 1895 barrels are Smokeless, but some early barrels are not marked as such, as they may have not had stamps ready. I have one no...

Re: Buyers Beware!!

Rick You are right! I have had good dealings with Little John’s out in CA.
