Revelation 115 ---Marlin 57 Lever

Awesome................

Very impressive, indeed.
Thanks for sharing.
Gotta love them levers.

Great looking rifle. Thanks

Very nice...

Sweet looking rifle. What did you finish the stock with?

First used a B&D Mouse sander taking it down to bare wood. Then used Minwax Stain. Dried 24 hours then used Minwax Semi-Gloss Poly Urethane Spray. Spraying every 15 minutes for about 6-9 coats.

There's one of these at the pawn store. What price range are these really bringing in?

I want it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very nice.

I'd say $100- $200 if it's complete & decent. I think the ones that are 100% are in the $300 range. I doubt if I'll get rid of this one? At least not planning on it!

I saw one sell not just asking but it sold for $625. American dollars, I couldn't believe it! This was yesterday, 2/17/13 !

I just checked the sold listing make that $655.!!!

if it's worth that, then it might be for sale after all!

I cant see spending that much for a USED 22lr

I grew up with a Western Auto Revelation 120. Fun gun. Still have it (nearly 40 years later). I enjoy it very much. I enjoy the last round open feature on my son's 795 though.

That`s a very nice rifle..No offense but it looks like a ruger.I thought the only lever marlin made was the 39...shows how much I know !!

Troy from swamp people has used that gun on the show

I have a Model 57 "J.C. Higgins" .22 Magnum made by Marlin sold by Sears. My pop gave it to me on my 12th birthday. That was 55 years ago. He paid $22.95 for it. I passed it on to my son who passsed on to his daughter. It's a little beat up but still drives tacks and shoots like a dream.
