My wife's cousin is looking to sell a Marlin lever gun but she has no idea of a value. I'm not a lever gun guy so I'm at a loss too. It's a Marlin Model 1893 chambered in 32-40. According to what I can find from a serial # look up it was made in 1898. It's all original and in decent shape for a 128 year old gun. What's y'alls thoughts on it? I may buy it but like I said, I'm not a lever guy although I think this one is cool because of the age and caliber. I want a deal but don't want to feel like I'm ripping her off.

The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.
