Hi Everyone:

I recently purchased a Marlin 1894 .44 magnum lever action. It was manufactured in North Haven CT. However, instead of having the JM mark on the barrel, it has the letters AG. The rifle is in very good shape. I will test it at the range this weekend.

Can anyone comment about this model? Someone told me that this is a rifle made with pre-Remington parts but assembled by Remington. Transition rifle?

Please share any information that can help me confirm if this is still a desirable lever action rifle without the glitches reported by owners of Remington built models.
