A controlled firearm that is an over-under .22/.410. They were made by the Marble Arms Company and are subject to the National Firearms Act of 1934 in being short barreled shotguns and rifles- the NFA regulates: A. machine Guns capable of full-automatic fire. B. Shotguns with abbreviated barrels popularily called (sawed-off), C. Pistols equipped with detachable or permanentaly fitted shoulder stocks., there is an established minimum barrel length of 18 Inches for a shotgun and 16 For a Rifle with conventional shoulder stocks. The Game getter is subject to the B and C portions of the act. The Game getter is not an automatic or even semi-auto arm, but does violate the concealability and short barrel/shoulder stocking portions of the act. Note that depending on the barrel length, the statis of the item is in question. If it has a barrel length shorter than 18", and is not currently registered properly with the ATF, it is in violation of the law to posess or sell the item. It cannot be "registered" now as the amnesty period has expired.

One solution is, if it is a short barrel model, separate the barrel component, from the frame component by removing the pivot screw, and disassemble into 2 separate halves. Do not keep or have the same person in posession or control of the separate halves. The barrels can be replaced with the longer 18" version at reasonable cost and the question of legality is solved. It can then be owned, sold, or used within the constraints of the law without being subject to the NFA restrictions. Im not saying its OK to posess the unregistered short barrel models. Im saying if they 2 halves of a short barrel model are not together, under the control of the same individual, the ATF ruling does not apply. Be very careful if you are inadvertantly or unintentionally in control of one of these that are in violation.

The individual parts, including short barrels, are quite legally sellable on the market as repair or replacements and only the "receiver" is a controlled part, and all sub-components can be sold or purchased without restriction.

If you are in need of the longer 18" barrels, or are interested in sellig parts, contact me Roger Watson at brddwatson@msn.com

What is a marble game getter gun in good condition worth?

Value will vary GREATLY based on exact configuration and condition. Expect values to start around $700- HOWEVER- if the barrels are less than 18 inches, this gun MUST have been registered with the BATF as an "Any Other Weapon". If it has not been registered it cannot be, and is contraband (worth nothing) and must be surrendered for destruction.

Which US companies made 410 pistols and where could you buy one that is properly registered?

Crescent, Ithaca, Marble, Stevens, probably a few others, but those are the major ones. You won't usually find any for sale at the local gun shops but you should be able to find a few at a major gunshow. Search the online firearms auctions for Marbles Game Getter, Crescent Certified Shotgun, Ithaca Auto and Burglar Gun. * Harrington & Richardson also manufactured the Handy Gun in 410 bore & 28 gauge.

Sorry- no such critter. Most 22 RIFLES do not have THAT much barrel. The Marble Game Getter was a .22 single shot/ .410 shotgun that was used by trappers- but was much shorter than that.
