This rifle design is 123 years old. Is it obsolete and outdated? Find out when I shoot the heck out of mine. - กีฬา
J-frames, 44 levers, Nevada scenery. This guy is on my wavelength.
I'd say so, I'm northern Nevada and really enjoy these videos
Great video. I have the same rifle but mine is the octagonal barrel Ltd version wth a 24" barrel. It's a 2002 model and is totally original. I was thinking of putting skinner peep sights on it but am unsure if I should. Would this de-value it. I know these rifles are becoming very collectable. What's your opinion?

Any good 44 mag rifle that is good is awesome. I love the caliber for hunting. I paid it with my Ruger super Blackhawk hunter 44. They fill my freezer every year with deer meat. 240 grn hard cast lead gas checked. . 430 dia. Atop imr 4227 . They should completely through deer and. Bear. I love 44 mag. Awsome video. God bless. Nevada looks beautiful. Do you hunt the desert.
I dont know how many time i watched this video, the scenery is gorgeous, the sound of the rifle report in the valley is awesome.
Keep up the good work
Totally Agree With You On All Points, I used to own one of these Marlins, and kick myself for selling it, Mabey in the future, I could get another, Stay Safe.
I just got this this gun fron my grandpa after he passed away. It is a 1970, 100th anniversary model. I can't WAIT to get it to the range!
Sorry to hear about your grandpa. Have fun and enjoy your very nice inheritance.
Perfect terrain for enjoying a lever action rifle. I'm jealous.
Yes sir, it really is the perfect terrain but unfortunately I no longer live in this beautiful area. I live further south where it is not quite so beautiful but I think you have motivated me to make another video with my Marlin .44 magnum.
Me too.
@@mixup98 Where were you before? You're near Vegas now aren't you?
love old Marlins . The 1894 was the black rifle of its day . Glad to see you back keep up the great work
I happened upon one of the ported 16 inch barreled Marlin 1894s in .44 mag/.44 spl when they first came out. It had a beautiful stock and forend with some curly grain. I plunked down my money instantly and have enjoyed that rifle immensely since. It's one of the last ones I'll ever let go of.
Now that is how a lever action rifle is supposed to look!
Nice rifle, I want one. I like the scenery in all of your videos. I been subbed for a couple of years. You are one of my favorite YT channels. Keep making your videos.
Thanks Jeff, you made me smile. I'm hoping to make my videos for many years and I appreciate my viewers watching them.
I have one of these guns from the same time period as yours.
Bought it new and it has been in a safe, in unfired condition.
After watching your skills in making it perform it's magic, I
intend to take it out and enjoy it. Thank you for all your wonderful
videos.
Wow what a Mint Rifle, looks like you found a real Sleeper. Thanks as always for bringing some Sunshine to my rainy U.K. day!
Thanks for another awesome video. Never disappointed by the beautiful landscape and firearms. Great work and great shooting!
Not only is mixup the best shot on TH-cam, he has the prettiest surroundings too! Nice video mixup. As always
Thanks Halfdollar....you just made my day !!!!
definately a shooter. this is how i shoot and is a great way to have fun shooting.
Yes I was going to compliment Mixup on his shooting skills as well. But decided it probably didnt need to be said. However glad to see someone did. He's the best shot I've seen on TH-cam as well. And I watch a lot of vids.
“Pretty cool, ain’t it.” Another one of my very favorite mixup98 quotes.
Yes and yeah man- it’s super cool!
That is one gorgeous lever action rifle. I want a .44 mag like it now. Seems like a super powerful round and rifle combo, coming outta that muzzle.
And wow again too with that area backdrop. Amazing scenery location. You’re blessed buddy with some great hike and plink areas!
Thanks.
Beautiful rifle, beautiful location. You are living the dream out west! Another great video with beautiful scenery!
I was very excited to receive a notification that you had put a new video up. As others have said, your videos are always great on scenery, shooting, and information. I hope we can see more outdoors and wildlife!
I've been eyeing .357 lever guns, right now the Marlin and the Henry Steel have my interest! Looking forward to seeing more from you!
I would go with Marlin. I have an older 357 that shoots and ejects any 38 or 357 round I put in it. My friends Henry is picky with ammo and don't work with most 38s and had to send it back and it still don't work right. With ammo being hard to get and not many options available sometimes you have go with what shoots whatever is available.
Nothing like real Steel and Wood!
Steel and wood thats all i buy not big on the "PLASTIC" guns but my muzzleloader is
@C Kim: Has this been confirmed ?
What a great video. I would have loved to have heard more about the history of the rifle and company, the fit and finish, the smoothness of the lever and trigger pull, etc. Then it really would have been the only review I need. As of now, though, I had fun watching this. Thanks forgetting out and making it.
Nice rifle, and beautiful scenery there too, especially the view from the bridge with the winding river through it. What a natural gun range !
Those Marlin's are super nice carbines, thanks for the video.
I have a late 1966-7 336 T in 44 magnum, everyone says they didnt make 44 mag in 336, they did a few years and it runs great, very handy.
You're right, Marlin did make a .44 magnum but for only a few years and I'm extremely jealous! Have fun, stay safe and thank you for watching my video.
Don't worry, I subscribed after I saw just one video from you and I've never looked back. You are an excellent shot and you have videos on such a wide variety of firearms. Thanks for all the time and effort you have put into the videos for so many years. They're always a joy to watch. That Marlin sure is gorgeous by the way. Whether in rifle or pistol, I love a .44 mag.
Nice shooting and a good demonstration. I have a 1894S. Took a 8 point white tail in 05. Handy little rifle. Thanks for posting.
He had me at the trekkie beam
Thanks Tom...
Love the early Marlin's. You are a fantastic shooter. Thanks for showing.
Really appreciate the work you put into making these visually spectacular videos ... so many different angles and scenes. That's a lot of tripod moving & setting up! The shooting's dang good, too. Please keep 'em coming!
With travel, set up, shooting, moving, down loading, editing and all the other things necessary to make my videos (I usually work alone) this seven minute video took about six hours to produce but I loved every minute of it and I really appreciate all the great comments I receive from my viewers as you guys are the best. I'll continue to make my videos as long as you guys keep watching them.
@@mixup98 It would take me six days just to do the re takes till I actually hit my targets.
@@paulross9287 Hello Paul. Good to hear from you and thank you for watching my old video 👍🤠
November 2020 : Watching the Bullet part over and over. The good old days.
Like you said that is a beautiful rifle and the scenery and you all blended in so well very very cool. I have always wanted but still have never got me a good 'ol lever action. That needs to be my next buy. Thank You for another awesome video. Have a great day.
Look for a true Marlin with no cross-bolt safety. Anything else is crap.
Thanks for the great video. Loved it. Great little gun and a real nice review. Got my 1894CS in 44mag at a pawn shop in the early 90's. Perfect deer gun when I was stationed in Florida for brush hunting.
Great shooting as usual mixup! Awesome rifle as well! Love that beautiful footbridge and creek scene!
Good to hear from you Sir. I live in West central New Mexico. We have that kind of country here but not the rivers that you showed us in the video. Again Thank You for your time and videos
Great shooting, great rifle, great scenery, Great vids. One lucky man you are!Thanks for your vids!
I am indeed a lucky man.
Great video and the 1894 marlin is such a classic model, that shot on the little bridge overlooking the river reminds me so much of the dug out location in John Wayne's True Grit , your locations and settings are fab, cheers mate
Really tremendous job on this one Mixup. Phenomenal scenery and I appreciate all the leg work it must have taken to get these shots. Also the gun is an old time classic!
Making this video was a lot of work but it certainly was worth it as I had a blast shooting this classic Marlin in northern Nevada. I'm thinking of doing another video on this rifle but the scenery here in southern Nevada won't be so phenomenal.
Lever guns are just the coolest. I've actually been hunting one of these older 1894s for some time now. the newer models just don't compare. Great shooting, mixup! Keep up the superb work!
I just want to move there, what a great scenery. Thank you.
Great video. The old Marlins are great rifles. I have a few myself including the 1894 P model....
Spectacular countryside and as always, great shooting. I was tempted enough to buy one of these some years ago but finally had to accept that it and I weren't made for each other; sometimes it jammed (including one nerve wracking day with a round stuck in the chamber), even after taking it to a local smith for some tuning.
" I've Always Loved the Sunrise Studios "
I look forward to your videos. Interesting guns, beautiful scenery, and you spare us the constant rambling/chatter that some channels inflict on their viewers. I love that rifle. I have a newer version of the same model (with the goofy cross-bolt safety unfortunately).
I've never been much of a talker....but I sure do love to shoot !!!!
Here sir thank you for on behalf of everybody that sits in traffic too much in California appreciate the shooting the scenery and that you're a cool dude
Love your shooting and the beautiful part of this great country you show us, great video Mr.Mixup.
Thank you David, I appreciate the great comment.
Nice review. Watching you wander through the high country with a lever action I half expected to see you come on a campfire with a couple of cowboys around it and their horses tied next to them. Glad to see you back.
Your back-drop looks like a classic western scene, fitting for this firearm. I have always wanted a 44Mag lever gun, and I am finally making it happen. I like the side loading port better than the tube style. I'm not sure what looks the best, that Marlin or the gorgeous countryside!?!
another great video, last year I purchased a Marlin 336xlr in 30,30 because my son wanted my old 1951 model Winchester 94 instead of a new one . I happened to walk in the Hawks Prairie Washington Cabela's and got the last Marlin made stainless 30-30 in their entire us inventory ,it is a tack driver! I throw it in my Scabbard now instead of my stainless Ruger 7 Mag, keep up the good work! I enjoy your videos and the Nevada scenery my brother lives north of Vegas.
I've never owned a stainless lever action but I would love to get my hands on one someday, especially an older Marlin.
Subbed you a few weeks ago, now I'm addicted to your vids, great content as well as shooting! Keepem coming!!!! :-)
Just bought on today. Thanks for great videos.
Nice rifle, good shooting, and beautiful country out there. Thanks.
You're welcome John !!!
Mixup, this video really does the Winchester 94, and the 44 mag round justice. The rifle is as fitting as your Stetson in that wonderful countryside. You sir are living the dream. Thank you for your videos. I'm your newest subscriber.
I am truly a lucky man and I hope my dream never ends. Thanks for the sub and the great comment and I hope to make my videos for many years.
Great find, it's a beauty. Been looking for one in 44 magnum for quite a while, but nobody seems to want to part with those "real" Marlins anymore. Love the videos Mixup, you are the best !! Thanks for sharing.
Great video. You are a hell of a badass with that lever action. You give honor to your avatar, The Rifleman.
Looking back on some of your awesome videos Bro ............ I had a carbine 44 mag marlin scoped and sold it , thats one that I wish I would have kept and again more videos thanks again Alan Thomas
Thanks for going back and watching some of my older videos, Alan. I should have a new video posted in a few days.
Nice to see that you are back!
That was a great video ! Loved the way you put it together and you used the open sights which I like.
Thanks LeRoy. I had a blast making this video and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I have one myself. Made in 1983 so it's pre-crossbolt safety as well. I hunt with 270 Speers out of it. Was shooting 265 Hornady but since they were designed for the 444 Marlin and it's velocities they don't hardly expand at all. Of all the centerfire rifles I've shot the 1894 is my favorite.
Great shooting as usual and a neat lever action firearm.Being a flat lander the scenery is a welcome sight.
Love that rifle. What a nice find. Thanks for another great video, enjoy that nice weather.
used to have one of those in .357mag. great little rifles. I spent a hell off a lot of hours sitting on the edge of a sand pit shooting out as far as 300 yards. always wanted one in .44 mag.
Amazing countryside, nice review and great shooting !
...another great video...thanks for posting it...I just bought an 1894 Marlin 44 magnum today...I'm looking forward to trying it out...
Paradise Road
how have you liked it so far?
@@outdoorsnevada4138 ...I really like it...I would buy it again...the Remlin horror stories seem to be greatly exaggerated in this case at least...
Been looking forward to a new video. Truly enjoy your sharing your skill and the scenery. Thank you sir.
You're welcome Rick and thank you for the great comment.
Absolutely beautiful and awesome video and rifle!! Well done and filming is excellent!! I’m hooked !!!!
It just dawned on me that I called your beautiful Marlin a Winchester. Sorry about that. I must say back in the late 70's my parents bought me my first rifle. a Marlin 336C in 30-30. I loved that rifle but it was stolen in about 1984. Your video reminded me of the enjoyment I had with my Marlin.
Nice as always. I bet a lot of people are jealous how we still have the freedom to go out and shoot just because we want to go out and shoot. Love the rock formations too that look like heads.
We are truly lucky to live in Nevada. Hey Tom, if you ever get up this way let me know and we'll go shooting.
I've had mine since 1986, great gun and I
will never get rid of it!
What a gorgeous scenery, love the snow capped mountains.
Expect a crowd in N. Nevada if you keep producing videos like this. "Boss, you sure can shoot."
This must be what heaven looks like
No,, not at all 🤪
Stunning scenery as always, you are SO fortunate. I really thought that rifle would kick more than it looked like it did.
Recoil isn't bad at all. Of course being 6'2" and 250 pounds helps a lot :>)
Last week I finally joined the 44 Magnum club with the purchase of a stainless, 6 inch S&W 629-1. It took me only a few minutes at the range to be assured that I’ll be a fan for life. Now, I need a companion rifle (such as this one). God Bless you and God Bless Elmer Keith!
Welcome to the .44 magnum club, and yes, you now need a .44 lever action companion. I used to love reading Elmer Keith when I was younger and just starting getting into firearms. Thanks for a great comment and thanks for watching my video.
Beautiful scenery beautiful rifle makes a beautiful day Buddy! I want one of those. Thumb's up!John
WORRO01 yes indeed.He killed them jugs real good.I wanted to see the impact of the different rounds on a log or something solid.
WORRO01 )
WORRO01 Funny my comment ran word for word almost with yours upon seeing that super amazing location scenery, and of course the sweet rifle! Small world. 👍
I have one and the rounds all react the same on solid materials it’s liquid and flesh that make them expand
I have the same rifle but with std rifling as opposed to the micro groove. Bought it new 16 years ago and it shoots better than new now its nicely worn in. Sadly only for range use here in the UK. Tim
Here in the US the English tried to tell us what to do with our guns once upon a time we didn't listen
good to see you out and about again.
you have the most beautiful scenery my son will be moving to nevada with the army shortly hope to come see him coarse im sure he wont be near a place like yours . i had an 80s 44 1894 marlin mine had the hammer block though. great video
Great rifle. Got a new one in .44 mag last year. Had it slicked up by Ranger Point Precision, and put Skinner peep sight on it. Well worth the extra cost. A true tack driver that is a blast to shoot. Love it like my Win 92 and Win 94 in .45 Colt. Love lever action rifles!
Ted how would you describe the difference in reliability/performance/cost of ownership between Your winchesters and Marlin? I can't decide. I just want one lever gun
it certainly is a very nice rifle. i couldn't agree more about that. doesn't matter to me if they are marlin or winchester - i like'em both and i like'em in pistol cartridge or rifle cartridge. that rifle you have looks like a keeper to me as far as i can tell. rifles like that i don't let go of. i like that in .44MAG. dang nice rifle - hit liked!
I have the 1894. Mine has the safety button you mentioned. It is equipped with a 4x post reticle telescopic sight mounted on see through mounts. It’s my favorite firearm.
My grandfather gave me this rifle as a gift. Best gun I've owned.
Okay, Now I will have to go on Gunbroker, and see if I can find one. Beautiful rifle!!
I would so love to live where you do. Such beautiful country! I'm jealous!
Some parts of Nevada can be butt ugly but fortunately I live in the beautiful part. Perhaps someday you can pass through this part of the country and check out northeastern Nevada.
Tuesday just got a little better! Glad to see new videos, and that river/stream is so beautiful! It was admittedly refreshing that you didn't feel the need to rehash the old vs new Marlin banter. It's been done to death, but I can appreciate the no safety though ;-)
You're right, I didn't want to get into the old/new Marlin debate which is why I only mentioned the safety and the year my rifle was made. I have waited a long time to use that stream and bridge in one of my videos and since I was in the area I pulled out the rifle, tripod and turned on the camera :>)
It's amazing, you essentially live in a postcard :). Spring turkey season opened here last Saturday, so I thankfully got a little dose of outdoors before coming back to the realities of bay area living
Thanks for the video! Great background, lovely rifle.
Thanks Ted. I had fun making this video and I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment on it.
You always pick the most interesting guns for your videos. Great shooting! keep it up.......
Another Enjoyable video 👍! They use to manufacture them not to far from where I live in Connecticut but due to our "Great 👎" gun environment here they left with a couple of other firearm manufacturers. Thanks for sharing and enjoying something we use to make here in this State.
Marlins are my favorite lever 💪🏻 guns of all time I have a marlin in 357-39 and a 39a is another beauty love all of your videos and by the way you are a great shot and video maker partner 👍🏻👍🏻
That was a seriously nice rifle, but gods, man - the scenery!! You outdid, well, everyone with that scenery. Just plain spectacular! Again! Thank-you, sir!
I'm not sure what I enjoyed the most while making this video....showing off my new rifle or showing off the beauty of Nevada :)
I just love lever action rifles, Thanks!!
A .44 Magnum in a lever gun? I want one!!
Seriously, a great review! Thanks for sharing!
Dan 821 I own a Marlin model 1894SS and I love it best shooting gun I have ever had the pleasure of having in my hands hope that you get one of your own and may it make you as happy as mine has me.
be sure to get the matching pistols, commonality of ammo!
Dan 821 --- I had one in 1969. It kicked like a mule and I couldn't hit the broadside of a barn.
I love the area where you shoot, I used to have a spot like that when I was younger but there are houses all the area now.Things have really changed here, I really like your videos, keep them coming. I would really like to have one of those Marlins.
Lovely to watch. Keep up the good work.
love the star trek entrance! Also love the 44mg marlin..WHY did I sell mine?? gotta get another one! I had more fun shooting that rifle than I do my AR15s
I saw a mixup98 video on my notifications so I got a cold one and settled in. You look so natural with a lever action or single action revolver in your hands. I bought my Winchester 94 in 1974, my first new gun that I bought myself. It is also in near mint condition. It cost 74 bucks.
Thank you Sir, always good watching.
That is some beautiful landscape you got there Mixup98 .
Northeastern Nevada is certainly beautiful and I am a lucky man :)
A great video of a beautiful, fun rifle. I was unemployed for few months in 2010 and unfortunately had to part with my Marlin 1894 in .44 Magnum. Miss that rifle and these Marlins in 44 Mag don't often come up for sale at a descent price in my area.
I subbed when I saw you "beam down". 😂
I find your videos to be very relaxing, thanks. I have one in stainless. That sure is beautiful country.
A nice day at the range and some beautiful scenery too.
Yeah, I love your captain Kirk transporter entrances...
Mixup ! That gun looks like it was in the box since 1981 😎
You musta bought it off a little old lady 😄
Beautiful rifle, and scenery that reminds me of an old western movie. Fantastic video, thank you.
I seen your Henry Video and it is a beauty as well . that Marlin is sweet for sure , I own a Pre Remington Model 1894c and I like it a lot, I did add a Skinner sight , it is a nice rifle , I am eyeing up that steel Henry in 44 though . great video , keep 'em coming
