ok I have read all of the other posts on this subject and still am stuck. I saw a Marlin 1893 today and am considering buying it but would like more info on the gun. It has a 26" full octagonal barrel, is chambered in 32-40 , has Model 93 on the top of the tang and a very lightly stamped 829 on the tang where the lever closes to. There is no serial # on this gun where the other posts and, one for sale here, has a serial #

The serial # is visible in pic 31 on this example. Can anyone help with a DOM on my gun?

added Sorry I'm sort of tired. I'm thinking that if it has no # then it was: scrubbed or a lunch box special, perhaps a prototype. Dating will be hard. 829 dates pre 1883 on the above site.
