Can anyone tell me if Marlin is still producing this rifle?

Not according to their website. They still offer it in .357/.38 Special, .44 Mag/.44 Special and .45 Colt. You might give them a call to be sure though.

I have a 1894SS in 44Mag. I used to have a 1894P also in 44Mag. When I was looking at their website I didn't see the 32 H@R one anymore. I was thinking of one of those and a Ruger Single Six in the same chambering as a fun little combination to go out and play with. It will still be a few months before I get home so I still have time to look for one. Thanks for the reply.

Accuracy, thank you for your service!

I've seen an occasional .32 H&R Marlin at gun shows but not for a long time. I think the H&R cartridge is a neat little package and have a couple DA revolvers for it. I carry the Ruger SP-101, 4" barrel, when tromping in the woods sometimes. The S&W snubby seems to find its way into my pocket when I make a short trip out for pizza, etc. The .32 H&R Magnum isn't a real powerhouse but I think it will serve for varmints.

I have a Marlin/Ruger combo in 44 Mag now. I just thought that the same thing in 32 H&R would be a fun thing to play with. There was a man who had a Single Six in 32 H&R when I was growing up. He was kind of a grandfather to me. He would let me take that little Ruger home and play with it. I could get 32 S&W longs and shorts at a local hardware store. It was a lot of fun. Then a couple of days ago I went to Marlins website and couldn't find the rifle there. So I went to Gunbroker and no luck there either. I found alot of Rugers but no Marlins. It didn't seem that long ago that they started making those rifles. I guess I thought the production run would be longer. Gun shops and gun shows are kinda far between over here. I was just looking for some fun new toys to play with when I get back.

The last "oddball" combo set I've seen in person was a .41Mag set Blackhawk\Marlin, the .32 would be nice too. Maybe you could settle for a .32-20?

There are a bunch of 32-20 1894's on gunbroker and I could get an import SAA in 32-20 to go with it. Hmmm.... Might have to look into that.

I was thinking a "92" for the levergun I always thought those had the slickest action once they got broke in. And if you rack it next to a "86"it looks like a miniature version, kinda cute like.
