I have the Marlin 1894 in .38-.357 that I bought new in 1981. Micro-groove rifling, no cross bolt safty. As I recall I paid $140. for it. I have taken several deer with it including a nice 8 point and a big 10 point. It is still in like new condition and one of my favorate Marlins.

I know they are much more expensive now, but I have no qualms about recomending one.
