    Looks like some Ruger lever-actions in our near future! Will Vista keep the Cor-Lokt name alive? Remington Asset bids revealed

    A couple of months ago I found a Marlin 336 that had been made in 1976. The sights are pretty much useless in low light. So I thought about replacing them with something a little more modern. The question I keep asking myself, should I mess with a rifle that was made in the 1970s? In all...

    Found an older Marlin 336 in a local pawn shop and put it on layaway. According to the serial number, the rifle was made in 1976. I am thinking about leaving it without a scope. The receiver is drilled and tapped. This would be an up close deer rifle. I thought about having it cerakote...

    Making a case for Lever action rifles when SHTF I would like to submit my justification for a lever action rifle. First, I’m a proponent of having a pistol and rifle chambered for the same round, my logic being having to carry different types for different guns. In the old west it seemed to...

    So today I picked up a 1987 Marlin 30as. It's a 336 with a birch stock essentially. The internals had some nice carbonized...gunk:xeye:, the finish on the stock was foggy, and there was a good deal of surface rust over the barrel and a bit of the receiver. I bought it anyways, for $99, and took...

I'm good with gun safety, But I have no idea how to clean a rifle (kinda embarrassing I know) a few questions. How do i clean a papoose? Are...

    I recieved this Marlin .22 lever action from a relative, who left it in his attic for decades. Problem is, I can't exactly identify it. He said he got it from his father (it might have passed down from his grandfather but he isn't sure) in the 30's. Most of the Model 1891 Marlins I've seen are...

    Some kind of worse case situation has happened, you and your family have to bug out to the Bug Out Location, and how what? Keep in mind, this is a worse case situation, meaning you did not have time to grab any gear from your home. The only gear you have, is the gear you have stored at the...

    So I finally purchased my first firearm.. a Marlin 795 .22 LR! I'm not a total newb (just a partial newb ;)) when it comes to shooting, but I've never owned my own firearm.. usually would just snag one of dad's for the day. Been to to range twice so far and shot about 400 rounds total through...

    With SKS prices creeping close to the $300 price range, why are they considered a viable option for survivalist,,, or even anyone else? Back in the 1990s when you could pick up an SKS for less then $100, yea, I could see buying one then. But over the past 2 decades prices have steadily gone...

    Was at a gun show here in VA last weekend and saw a marlin lever in 44 MAG for $569 (new)... i have about every practical action a gun can come in with the exception of a lever, and was thinking of this to round it out. The show is coming back in late november so i have another opportunity. I...

    For those, like myself, that have and shoot Camp-9 or 45 rifles you may be interested in this. I have replaced the recoil springs and buffers on many Camp rifles. They always have come to me in various states, from brand new, to having been fired a great many times. Sometimes there was some...

    I'm thinking about getting a new deer rifle and if I do, it's going to be a Marlin 336. I've been reading about the 336 in 35rem. I'm sorry, but I don't know what that is? Can someone help me to understand if that is a 30-30 cal. or what. If you can help me get unstuck from stupid, I would...

    One of the most asked questions I see on the forum - "what is the best survival rifle?" A well balanced answer is, there is no perfect rifle. If you live in Alaska, your rifle needs are going to be a lot different then someone that lives in the Southern states. Its doubtful someone living in...

    Anyone have any thoughts on a Marlin 336c in 30-30 for an all around survival rifle????
  17. Rifle Forum
    I'm taking the plunge. I thought I had it ordered yesterday, but got a call this morning double-checking and asking me a few questions before he placed the order ... and it got me thinking. The two they have in stock right now are both shorty trapper "Guide Gun" models, one is blue the other...

    Like the title says, Academy has a sale going on right now for a Marlin 336W Lever action rifle. Origianl price for the rifle is 399.99 but with this sale it has dropped down to 353.00. If you want one you need to go by and grab it before the 29th. That's when the sale ends. I picked on up...

    At least it is new to me. Choate has a length adjustable stock, for the camp-9 or 45 on the market. It is similar to their folder from the pistol grip to the front, but adjusts like an AR-15 in the back. Actually looks like a much nicer set up than the AR's. The lockup is firm and the stock...
