Beautiful rifle. Can't tell if it's got a round or octagon barrel? Looks to be a longer barrel also.. most the Marlins had a short barrel.
I had 2 of them a couple years back and sold them both. I'm kicking myself now.

Open the action halfway, remove the lever screw, pull the lever out, remove the bolt, and clean from chamber to end of barrel. Not like Winchesters, etc., where you have to push everything back down the barrel into the action. They are more of a pain to take apart.
