[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3730771, member: 41653"] Picked this up this past weekend. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Full rifle RH.JPG"]254155[/ATTACH] Marlin 336 in .30-30. Serial number shows born in 1974, so there is no slide-safety. JM stamped, of course. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Receiver-Barrel LH,shows JM stmp.JPG"]254156[/ATTACH] The guy priced it low. So low I gave him a chance to change his mind - "Seems a bit cheap. Are you sure on the price?" He affirmed, so I bought it. Didn't even quibble. I'm not going to tell you what I paid, but it's substantially less than these are going for. However, it's not all beer and skittles; the rifle has some problems. Some scratches on the receiver; side and top, and the scope mount screw hole inserts are missing- [ATTACH type="full" alt="Top of receiver.JPG"]254157[/ATTACH] Front sight hood missing, front sight took a few hits too - [ATTACH type="full" alt="End of barrel LH, frnt sight.JPG"]254158[/ATTACH] Whomever mounted the sling stud made the classic error of screwing it into the Marlin "Bullseye" - [ATTACH type="full" alt="RH stock.JPG"]254159[/ATTACH] I wasn't looking for one of these, in fact I've been trying to not buy any more firearms, in order to fund my first suppressor. It was just too cheap to pass; I suppose I can live with it. [/QUOTE]
