Want to buy a 357 leveraction rifle--Marlin, Rossi/Puma, Winchester, etc.
I'm looking for a clean looking rifle in the $3-700 range.
Especially looking for a Marlin 1894CSS Stainless 357 or the CS blued model.
225-505-3248
Let me know what you have.
Also do trades. I have a Stevens .223 bolt action rifle, Ruger Mini 14 Ranch .223, Remington 870 Express Synthetic 12 gauge, Ruger 10/22 LNIB .22 rifle or even a Ruger 45 Colt with extra 45 ACP cylinder, customized with red ramp front sight, wolf springs, Super Blackhawk gripframe, 7.5" barrel.
Also have a Ruger 96/44 lever action rifle in .44 magnum with extra magazine.

FOUND Thanks !!!

I'm looking at a Rossi Trapper right now with a big loop lever. That stainless one does interest me.
I have a Ruger 44 mag leveraction already but I do like the Marlins.
I wish could find a Marlin 357 at a decent price.

What caliber is yours? Also if you don't mind what length is your barrel?

The 1894CS is a 357 with 18.5" barrel and crossbolt safety.

exactly right, hunter5567.

Fun gun, very smooth, very accurate.
It shoots well, and is light enough for my eight year old to handle.
I love it.

I have the 1894cb in 357 that i use in Cowboy action. I had a bigger front sight installed, crossbolt safety disabled and the action slicked up real nice. I love it and is really a smooth shooting rifle.

Man,I had a Rossi 92 with the round 20"bbl that was just superb. I didn't care if I never owned another semi auto carbine or rifle as long as I had that Rossi in hand. Sadly,I had to sell it to Cavalry Jim when I lost my job in December. I'll be on the hunt for one soon!

Hold out for the Marlin. They're worth it, much harder to locate, and if you ever have to part with it, you'll get your money back.

Just my .02.

Have the 94cs in .357 and I'm currently on a .357 mag kick so I've fallen in love with it all over again. GREAT lil rifles with power far over their size/handiness.

Good luck in your search. Paid $499 for mine off the website at Cabela's.
