Marlin 1897 Cowboy

[hunter1]

Anyone here have any idea how many of these rifle were made? I have seen some that had 24" barrels and some with 26" barrels. Was wondering how many of each was made?

It is a minefield. A couple years ago I was looking for a .22 and .45LC levergun combination and did some research on the Marlins before buying a couple.

The 97s had a bunch of factory options that change their value considerably. The best way to get an idea would be to search auctionarms, gunbroker and gunsamerica.

The BB is only a guide but does say it was manfactured from 1999-2001. You could call Marlin to see if they have a historian, I don't know who owns Marlin now, Good luck,
