My Dad gave me his Marlin 39A .22 lever action rifle for my 12th birthday
That was a really nice rifle.
In a moment of stupidity I traded it in as down payment on a Ruger M77 30-06
My Dad nearly disowned me for that  :no:

Got a .22 Marlin bolt action that is 40+ years old. Got a Winchester .30-.30 lever action. Really got to get my LTC so I can go shooting again. Frickin blue states make it hard to keep up with the constant changes.

Kid i went to HS with got a Henry pump action .22LR in stainless. I'd still love to get one.
 This Marlin by Ruger looks sweet. The picatinney seems a little out of place until you see it with a scope. Nice.
 RGR is a good value play if you're into stock market stuff.

A Review

1.21" groups at 100 yards... not to shabby for a 45-70 lever action rifle

I have a 1960's era Marlin model 336 lever-action rifle in .35 Remington caliber that my Dad passed down to me when I was a teenager.

Killed alot of deer with that little beauty, and hanging on to it now to pass down to my first grandson in a few more years.  :cheers:

It's nice to see Ruger kept the Marlin tradition going, because those old lever-action rifles are real American classics!  :thumbsup:

QuoteI was reluctant to report how well this rifle shot for fear of being thought a charlatan. I tested four loads from a sandbag rest at 100 yards using Leupold's intermediate eye relief (IER) VX-2, 1.5-4×28 riflescope. The average for 12 3-shot groups—three, 3-shot groups with each load—was a stunningly small 1.125 inches. And two of the loads averaged less than an inch. Just let that sink in; this is a sub-MOA, big bore, lever-action rifle.

I saw that article. I don't know what I'd ever use a 45-70 for, but it sure made me want one.

The American Rifleman had an article in the March 2022 issue titled "Marlin Reborn"
It was about Ruger's work moving the old Marlin factory from New Haven, Conn. to Mayodan, NC
and the engineering efforts involved in building the manufacturing line to produce the Ruger version of the
Marlin 1895.  Since most of us are gun nuts and manufacturing geeks I though you would enjoy this article.
I could not find it on the American Rifleman, but after some work on Bing I found this on nxtbook.com
It's a flip book of the March 2022 issue of the American Rifleman. The article in question starts on page 40.

On page 44 they have a photo of a guy work on a PC using CAD software. I couldn't tell what they were running.
You can save the flipbook as a PDF is you like that better
