That's a beautiful M1895 takedown engraved Marlin. In the last several years some of the big auction house have sold some very nice high conditioned engraved Marlins - including M1895's. The Model 1895 is my favorite Marlin. I have always wanted just a plan M1895 lightweight in .45-70. I've never connected and almost never seen one for sale. I can't imagine how difficult it would be to find a lightweight in a deluxe version. I also am a fan of the '95 in SRC variation. As this is a gunshow right now, I'll include a pair of .33's I have. I do like case color and I like fancy, unusual wood. Between the two of these I have it covered.
