Are you going to do that?? Thats how all Marlin levers came for many many years...only the past decade or so they had the crossbolt safety.

That being said I will be adding a 45/70 to the collection at some point. When I do it will be a history piece not something I hunt with much Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yeah..I have watched far too many cavalry westerns NOT to covet an 1873 Trapdoor carbine.... I also think the Sharps are very cool, along with others like the Remington Rolling Block.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveboone Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 The zillions of Winchesters and Marlins up until the late eighties or nineties all were 1/2 cock only safeties. I never got the big deal...firearm basics. Keep pointed in a safe direction, keep the finger off the trigger. Both my 94s are so built and I have never had a concern. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've handled pre and post '64 Model 94 rifles. i started out hunting with one. hell i've had some look right at me that owned them and said they don't have one. then when I, still in my 30s, show them half cock safety all you hear is crickets. can't break rule number 1 but yea no worries about being half cocked. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
