Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 696 pages. Huge volume. In 1863, John Mahlon Marlin's dream was simply to make small, single-shot, derringer-type pistols. But within twenty years, his dream had grown into a corporation that would eventually be called the Marlin Firearms Company, and Marlin was one of the foremost names in the firearms industry. In this comprehensive book, learn about the men who built the Marlin empire, the guns that are known for their classic beauty and intrinsic value, and the many products Marlin manufactured as sidelines to the firearms business. The book covers the history of Marlin firearms from 1863 to the present (1989). In the first of three sections learn about the evolution of the company - the formation, takeovers, name changes - and the men who made it successful. In part two, discover the details - the length, stock choke, weight, serial number, caliber, takedown, and more - of the many models of Marlin guns, guns that not only were used for sport but also saw action in World Wars I and II. Part three documents Marlin's many other products - wagons, handcuffs, and carriages for example - plus the awards won and advertisements used by Marlin, the gun inspections, the ammunition, the patents, and the extras. An outstanding and very comprehensive reference for the collector and historian. .
