FINALLY!!
Received the first Marlin 1894 Cowboy 32 H&R Magnum today. It is nicely put together, great blue metal finish and the loading tube is slick as can be. The only short coming is the final finish on the wood; it feels grainy, almost like they did not dust off the wood completely before final application.
I cannot tell you about the shooting, loading and unloading as this gun is for one of my customers. As soon as he uses it I am in hopes he will give us a report.
Sorry I cannot give your more details. RJSnow
