Marlin 1894CS Lever Action .357 Magnum

The Marlin 1894 CS is widely considered an excellent, highly versatile, and incredibly fun lever-action carbine. It is prized for its compact size, smooth handling, and perfect pairing with revolver-caliber ammunition. The ability to shoot mild .38 Special rounds for inexpensive plinking or powerful .357 Magnum loads for home defense and medium-game hunting makes it highly adaptable. This gun's strengths include: its low weight and length make it extremely quick to point and maneuver, it has low recoil, and its capacity (9 rounds with .357 Magnum and 10 with .38).
