My son has a 1981 vintage Marlin 1894 Carbine in 357 Mag. that won't fire.I think the rifle has a 2 piece firing pin. The firing pin appears to move to the rear when the bolt is levered and returned to battery.Could the firing pin in it's channel be gummed up enough to prevent the rifle from firing?...

Cubrock,
Based on my reading of this post and your ad in the classified,the Marlin appears to be a very shootable rifle,correct ??? Does the musket frame have suffecient strength to handle jacketd bullet reloads as listed in most of the current reloading guides ?
