The Model 1894CL features marble adjustable, semi-buckhorn rear and marble carbine front sights.

The Model 1894CB, in .32 H&R Magnum, loads from the front of the tubular magazine, like the Marlin Model 39A rimfire rifle, and has a faster, 10% shorter throw lever action.
There are also several “Limited Edition” Marlin 1894 rifles which are Stainless Steel with grey, laminated furniture and “tru-glo” sights. They were pre-drilled for a scope base and included a solid, rubber recoil pad. They are considered very collectible as only 250 of each caliber were made. There is a unique barrel stamping on these rifles which is denoted as Marlin 1894 LTDSS, followed by the caliber; example “Marlin 1894LTDSS 41 Magnum”. These rifles were chambered in .357 Magnum/.38 Special, .41 Magnum/.41 Special, .44 Magnum/.44 Special, and .45 Long Colt.
There were a total of 2600, 1894s Rifles made in 1997 labeled as “The Marlin Limited” in .45 colt, .357 magnum and .44 magnum with 16.25″ barre
