Marlin 336 Awesomeness

[Tyrusvirus1]

Just wanted to share how fantastic the Marlin 336 (Pre-Remington) is for the money. I put Skinner peep sights on my 336 and was hitting a steel torso target at 370yds (verified via range finder) multiple times standing unsupported For anyone who wants a good well built all purpose rifle it does not get much better than a Marlin 336 chambered in 30-30

Got one from a friends estate. It is very clean , I look forward to shooting it soon. It seems like a VERY well made weapon

I have one , and it is nice. I kinda wish it were in 357 though, so I could hunt with it now. I think the laws should change soon though, and 30-30 will rock.

It does if you own a 336 in 35 rem......My old SC with the perch belly forearm and 1958 vintage steel peep sight.

370 yards? Talk about a loopy trajectory!

My favorite gun!

I have a 1968 336RC that my Father gave me. I'm afraid to go shoot it because it's pristine.

They are great rifles, and that Skinner peep sight is great also, I have one mounted on a Marlin golden 39A.

Lever actions rock! Whatever caliber they're in, they are fun to shoot and robust.

I have a new 336W, .30-30. Only been to the range once so far, but I did like what I saw. If all goes well, I will be taking the Marlin, my Bersa 97, and my NEW rifle to the range sometime next week. Today I closed the deal on a Springfield M-1A! Can't wait to point it downrange and pull the trigger!

 

[Indysioux]

My 336 30-30 is from the mid-sixties. A seriously fun gun to shoot

 

[canoeman]

I have an 1894 in .357 and a .444 also.....Love them.

when did remington buy marlin, i been looking for a lever 357 mag

Marlin rifles make me wonder how Winchester ever got so popular. The Marlin is a far superior lever action, Although the Winchesters seem to handle hotter calibers.

I sold my Marlin 336 about a year ago because of financial issues.

problem with my 336w

i just aquired this gun recently not knowing anything about it and
getting ready to clean it i noticed that the trigger has no resistance
like there is a spring missing.
i asked the guy i traded it for and he said he never noticed it not knowing a bunch should i tear it down via youtube reference or just leave it?

Did you actuate the lever (cocking it)?

If yes, I would take it to a qualified gunsmith.
