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. Rare Model 1908 Game Getter 22/44 Pistol w/Stock Offered herein is an exceptional example of one of those delightful little gun oddities of the collecting world – the Marble's Game Getter. This specimen is the EARLIEST. And most desirable of two basic. SN 15279 is a Model 1921 built with 12' barrel in 22 cal and 44/410 2' ga. Bright, excellent bores. This piece comes with original rear sight, and original folding stock with shows all the original nickel and in sound condition. 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. 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.

Third Generation Marble Game Getter Gun

Equipped with….a Marble Pocket Axe, Recreation Waterproof Pocket Match Box, and a Marble Compass…one might cross and recross a continent without a guide.By 1909, when the Marble Safety Axe Company introduced its Game Getter Gun, Webster Marble was already famous for his inventive genius. The new gun became his masterpiece.
A diehard minimalist, Marble believed most outings were spoiled by poor equipment and too much of it. Of his own products he said: 'Equipped with….a Marble Pocket Axe, Recreation Waterproof Pocket Match Box, and a Marble Compass…one might cross and recross a continent without a guide.'
But why no gun? According to the inventor, everything he tried during three decades as surveyor, trapper, and timber cruiser was too cumbersome or too fragile. In fact, for lack of a gun, he once used his axe to fend off a hungry lynx.
Looking for the perfect firearm, he tinkered for years. From early patents and prototypes it is clear he wanted three things, light weight, multiple calibers, and absolute reliability.
By 1908, he had what he wanted and filed patents for a folding shoulder stocked double barreled pistol in calibers .22 and .44—at a mere 2 ¼ pounds.
The upper barrel was chambered for .22 short, long and long rifle. The under barrel, a smooth bored .44, could handle shot or ball.
