Look like this one?1970's Marlin 1895, Straight Stock 45/70.
Only one of 2 that I had ever seen personally with a straight stock. Didn't know what I had at the time, sold it to a friend's dad as his bear gun.
Picked up a Henry to replace it, but would rather have my Marlin back.

This is me. I sold a S&W Model 586 and was sorry I did so. It took me over 20 years to replace it but I got a 4" barrel this time vs 6" and I like it better. So an improvement as far as I'm concerned.There have been a few I somewhat regret but I am always looking ahead.
AKA down size, cleaning out the safe... selling guns. Who else has made this mistake? I’ve done it twice and now I seriously regret doing it. Some of the stuff I got rid for one stupid reason or another, I would give almost anything to get back. The most notable are an ERA M1917, 1972 Browning HI-Power, and a Kimber Eclipse 45acp and the list goes on. What was your biggest regret?
3 - Weatherby MK XXII semi auto 22. The nicest looking 22lr I ever owned , quite a good shooter. Bought it new for around $269 if I recall , wish I had it back!
I paid $341 for mine. I bought it in fall of '94.the receipt for the 617, at like $480 dollars or so. That was a lot of money for me in '95 - I'll bet I was drunk-shopping back then. I'm almost happy I quit doing that.
