The New 2/lar/in Trap Gun 
Special-Smokeless Steel 
A 12-Gauge, Take-Down, 6-Shot Repeater, 
built with expert knowledge ol trap-shooting 
requirements. 
No expense is spared to make this gun the best handling, best shooting, most efficient 
trap gun in the world. It has imported Circassian walnut stock, hand-made, beautifully 
modeled; with fine checking on grip and forearm. It is handsome, harmonious and 
distinctive, yet the excessive, expensive ornamentation has been eliminated, allowing the 
gun to be sold with Smokeless Steel barrel at the moderate price of $38.00 catalog list 
less at your dealer’s. 
Made to individual measurements for discriminating shooters at a slight additional 
charge 
Every man who shoots over the trap should know this gun—mail a postal to-day for circular 
giving a large illustration and full description—or send three stamps postage for complete catalog o£ 
all Marlin repeaters.

beautiful. Besides the pictures of fish, there are cuts
