True, but the game getter may already be registered legally. It can also
be legally registered during BATF 'amnesty' periods.

Marble's tang sights were made to fit a wide variety of guns. Far left is for the Game GetterType your paragraph here. From the Factory: Sixty No. 8 shot in a 12 inch target, 6 round balls in a 2 inch bullseye, and 10.22 bullets in a 1 ½ inch circle—all at 50 feet with a 12 inch barrel and the same sight setting. This whole assembly is stored in a really nice custom made wood box that protects the original box, gun, papers and holster. This is a great way to store and display this Game Getter. The serial number is in the 18 thousand range. This is a really great find for the Marble's collector as well as the firearms collector.

This firearm must be shipped to a FFL

The Marble's Game Getter is one of those delightful little gun oddities which, like Ithaca's neat little 'Auto-Burglar Gun,' was legislated out of existence by the National Firearms Act of 1934 which, among other things, imposed burdensome restrictions on shotguns with barrels less than 18. : One version of the Marble’s Game Getter was produced with 18-inch barrels and a folding shoulder stock. This model of the Game Getter, as manufactured, is not subject to the provisions of the NFA because it has barrels that are 18 inches in length and the overall length of the firearm, with stock extended, is more than 26 inches. The Marble’s Game Getter Gun, a storied gun with a long and troubled history, speaks to me. By today’s standards, the skeletal over-under is underpowered, and a bit slow. Yet the single-shot Game Getter Gun lives on in the survival-minded offerings of Springfield Armory, and Savage, and even Chiappa. Let me set the scene.
