New Marlin Cowboy owner
« on: October 09, 2005, 02:36:34 PM »
Hello All,
I got a deal I thought I'd tell you about.
Long story short I had two guns I wasn't going to shoot anymore, a Taurus PT92 9mm, and a Para Ordinance P14-45. The situation with these guns was that I thought I had to have them at the time but quickly lost interest in them.
The Para came with a bunch of loaded rounds, a box & papers, a speed holster and clip holder, and plastick ammo boxes.

I added a bunch more brass cases, and loading dies to the mix.
After I started loading for the Para is when I lost interest in it, so I put it and all it's stuff in a large box and put it away, and the PT92 I put in it's box in the reloading room.

Then along comes the gun show and I find a vender there that I have delt with before, and tell him of my unused guns. Well he tells me he wants the Para.  Long story short, He has a Marlin 94 .357 magnum with a $750 price tag on it. :-)

So he gets the two pistols plus all there stuff and I get the Marlin plus $200. :grin:

Come to find out its a Marlin 1894 Cowboy Limited. WOW WOW!! :-D

It shoots good to   :-D  :-D

Happy shooting
Scott

:cb2: Congratulations! I've got a 94 Cowboy in 38/357 and it is a FINE shooter. It outshot my Marlin 336 Cowboy .30-30 at 100 yards with .38 Specials (sub 3" group with open sights). Bought a case of that ammo, and 1000 rounds from now I'll see how it does with .357s! (Naw—I can't wait that long!)

It's really a joy to shoot!
