I've got a Marlin lever action with the two piece firing pin; need to know just how the flat spring is supposed to fit when reassembling, does it bow up or down & where does it fit....
Also my rifle has Marlin '94 on the top stock tang; 32W on the barrel in front of receiver, what type of cartridge does this rifle shoot?...... has patent dates of 1887, 1889 & 1893, are any of these dates the date of manufacture?
The barrel is round and little over 23 inches; serial # 301668............ the receiver looks as though it has case hardening colors; was the barrel blued or cased hardened coloring also...
Any info would be greatly appreciated................Ron.............
