Need help learning more about my Marlin 1894 rifle

[massnee]

I recently acquired this Marlin Model 94 rifle from my 87 year old neighbor. This was his father's rifle.

Does anyone know what caliber it is? When it was manufactured?

Thanks

No, but nice rifle!

Its a beauty, love those old cowboy guns. Terrific shape
If this was manufactured at the turn of the century then it was probably in a old pistol caliber like a .38-40 or a .44-40.
The folks at this website could probably help

s/n 200,000 mfg. 1900
s/n 300,000 mfg. 1904
s/n 350,000 mfg. 1906

I'd guess 399xxx was mfg. 1907-8

I believe the caliber for this rifle is .25-20.

I want to sell it...how much should I sell it for?
