Marlin rifles

Welcome to the UK No 1 Marlin dealers........

Recognised by many shooters as the ideal lever action gallery rifle, Marlin rifles feature a solid top receiver with true side ejection, making it easy to fit a scope or red dot sight. Rugged and dependable, they make the perfect choice for both action shooting and precision events. We supply these fine rifles in a number of formats from "out of the box" to our tuned and slicked versions fitted with our one piece stainless steel firing pin.

This spring gives two advantages....firstly the trigger pull is lightened by a pound or so, but more importantly it means that less effort is required by the shooter to work the action. This part is available on its own for those of you who already own a Marlin for the princely sum of just £5.00 .....so what are you waiting for?

Wild West Guns Trigger Happy kit

Over the past few years we have supplied hundreds of this product to shooters as well as using them as the heart of our tuned and slicked Marlin rifles. If you look at our website fairly frequently you will be aware that for the past three to four years we have been actively pursuing a policy of using parts and accessories made here in England. Although we have been importing guns and gun parts for over 25 years this process has changed from a pleasant and enjoyable exercise to a time consuming, frustrating and ever increasingly expensive chore. This is due largely to US government policies. The small number of Trigger Happy kits we have left will be used in our Marlins for sale but in the New Year we hope to introduce our tuned Marlins without this kit and at a reduced price....so watch this space!

Marlin firing pins
The two piece factory design is prone to breakage, but we have one piece stainless steel replacements in stock at £20.00 which is barely more than the cost of replacing the factory parts! This fits the pistol calibre Marlins but not the rimfire ones.

Marlin rifle prices

Due to the popularity of our tuned Marlin rifles we have simplified our pricing structure! You will see one price for each Marlin model. This is for an "out of the box" rifle, although this includes modified or replacement springs for easier use plus a "pre delivery check" which has proved to be a sensible idea as we find a considerable number of Marlin rifles which don't want to feed cartridges from the tubular magazine too well. This is fine if you have plenty of time for precision shooting but not so good if you are taking part in the action disciplines where speedy and reliable functioning is necessary. These new prices reflect the recent 5% price rise from the manufacturer and importers together with the increased VAT rate to 20%

We endeavour to keep all the above rifles in stock, subject of course to availability from Edgar Brothers, the UK Marlin distributors. In addition we are happy to try to obtain any other Marlin rifle to Special Order.

"Tricked and Slicked"
These rifles have received our full tuning service including honing, polishing, and adjustment of internal parts as well as work on springs. It also includes the supply and fitting of a Wild West Guns "Trigger Happy" kit and one piece stainless steel firing pin. This procedure results in a rifle which can be racked open and shut with just your little finger!
Please add £130 to the price of the basic rifle.

Want to mount optics to your Marlin? No problem .... we keep a selection of bases and scope rings in stock!

Prefer to use open sights?
We stock Williams aperture sights and Marbles tang sights. Williams sights attach to the rear holes drilled and tapped in the top of the receiver, and are available with and without target knobs for £75.00 and £65.00 respectively. The Marbles tang sight is reminiscent of the 19th Century sight and add a touch of authenticity to your lever action rifle. They cost in the region of £120 including a new tang screw and choice of apertures.
