MARLIN 1894 DARK 44 MAG

The Marlin® Dark Series Model 1894™ in .44 Remington Magnum combines classic lever-action reliability with modern tactical enhancements, creating a powerful and versatile platform for hunting, defense and recreational shooting. Built by Ruger and engineered for today's shooters, the 1894 Dark Series delivers rugged performance, suppressor compatibility and optics-ready capability in a compact, hard-hitting package.

At the heart of the rifle is a 16.17-inch cold hammer-forged alloy steel barrel that provides exceptional accuracy, durability and long service life. Finished in Graphite Black Cerakote®, the barrel and major components are protected against corrosion and wear, while the threaded 5/8x24 muzzle comes equipped with a factory-installed radial muzzle brake and includes a thread protector for customization.

The Dark Series features a durable nylon-reinforced polymer stock with integrated M-LOK® attachment slots, flush cup QD sling swivel sockets and an included cheek riser that provides optimal alignment when using optics. An anodized aluminum handguard with additional M-LOK® slots allows for the attachment of lights, lasers, grips and other accessories, making the rifle highly adaptable to a variety of applications.

A factory-installed Picatinny rail provides a solid mounting platform for scopes, red dots and other optics, while the fiber optic front sight with tritium ring and adjustable ghost ring rear sight ensure rapid target acquisition in both daylight and low-light conditions.

The tubular magazine holds eight rounds of .44 Magnum or nine rounds of .44 Special ammunition, delivering substantial firepower in a compact lever-action platform. A nitrided bolt and lever provide enhanced wear resistance and smooth cycling, while the mid-sized finger lever offers comfortable operation during extended shooting sessions.

Whether you're hunting hogs and deer, building a suppressor-ready woods rifle or simply want a modern lever-action with premium features, the Marlin Dark Series Model 1894 delivers exceptional performance and versatility.
