Marlin made a fair number of the A-DL with non checkered wood...I don't know why but I have seen a few like that. We might also ask why Marlin chose to re-introduce the 336A as a cut rate carbine in the later part of the last century when the designation had previously indicated a 24 inch barrel wit...

My first toy gun was a set of cowboy cap guns in a double holster rig...came with a hat too...wore the outfit all day every day for a month after I got them for my 5th birthday!

Also praying for that man...God answers prayers...someone was praying for him before now and God sent you into his life. God is good!

I found some at Bass Pro last fall $30.95.... I was looking for 25-06 found none...I have never bought a box of .32 Been re-loading it since I finished the rifle. Witht he recent price jumps...reloading is paying again...go look at the price of .338 Win Mag..........

I shoot a 1948 Winchester Model 12 in 16ga and a 1947 LC Smith Field in 16ga. The Winchester is in pieces right now for a total re-finish...I am sending the metal to Simmons for a solid rib and re-blue and I am refinishing the wood. This project has been a long time in the works and I am getting cl...

That is so cool! Thanks for the pics and history info

Bloodhound

Could be there was a 94 set up that way..but I have never heard of such...I was hoping one of the experts would chime in

Bloodhound

SCORE! Congrats

Bloodhound

Sounds like a Model 64 configuration...so it could be a "Frankenchester" or it could be a 64 and the person who told you about it just thought it was a 94 or it could be a 94 configuration/custom order or it could be........ With out pics or you having looked its difficult....and I am not ...

I seem to remember he promised to leave the USA for good if George W. was re-elected for a second term...so what is he doing in New York?

Bloodhound

Congrats on recovering the 444s and the hunt...good luck on your current hunt. Nice levergun!

Bloodhound

What a great project! Puts me back to my .375 JDJ project plans. Havn't thought about it for a while...but this thread has me scratching my head again...and checking the web for an older .444

Bloodhound

I'll be using my custom build Marlin 336A in the more wooded areas. It started life as a 30-30 carbine with very plain wood. When I got it it was very "Used". New barrel in 32 WS and mag tube and re-stocked...Its my favorite lever in my safe. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/husky9000/...

Bloodhound

You gotta love the old .22s I have 2 Winche3ster 72s...one scoped and one not...they both shoot like a dream and function is perfect. My favorite .22 rifles Congrats

About 15 years ago, I bought some Buris Scopes that they were closing out, fixed 4x s to put on rifles for the gun show...I think I got them for $35 each + shipping...it was a great deal and I made money sellin ghtem later...but that was the last deal I saw from them...after that the good deals were...

Picthy So sorry to hear about Snoopy and your loss. As to a new dog, you have been given a lot of great choices and info. AKC show is this month...a great place for info and it is entertaining.

SWEET...would love to hear some of the history if you have it and how it came to be in your hands.

Cool rifle

Bloodhound

I had one of these in the 80s....he always liked the cal....he is an adult and he was looking for an investment rifle...he bought a 95% Winchester 88 in .284....based on the info I have...he scored! Its a 1963 model and I has made me want one again...I sold mine...I may be on the "Hunt" ag...

A great pic and a cool story...every young guy needs an "Old Man" your story reminds me of my "Old Man"...Thanks

Well I went to Church Saterday evening, so Sunday morning was wide open...off to the range I went...I wanted to sight my varment rifle in, (Springfield bolt action .30-30...I shoot 110 grain varment bullets in it, 2600 FPS) its a great coyote calling rig. But the main reason I wanted to get to the r...

Bloodhound

There are for sure some issues with bullets and COL with the .375JDJ. Its just a fantasy I keep in the back of my mind. Maybe someday I will play around with it.....

Bloodhound

Well....words escape me..............

http://www.35caliber.com/index.html This is the sight I was thinking of...noted above as well. Seems to me like the Marlin "Extended Range" guns had a beefier action/receiver...Its fun to make something totally yours by changing into something else...cause you can...but keep in mind no mat...

Bloodhound

The 88 in 308 or 284 both will do all you want to out to that distance...and a .284 ohhhh way cool

Bloodhound

Conversion to 356 would be neat...I have some info of a guy that does the work but its at home...I'll try to find it and post it...as to the gun you have...there are new/old stock barrels around for the 336A guns...I bought one in .32 win special, and changed a 30-30 carbine into the 336A version......

Golden gun club is great...don't have a lot of hills or dirt road to cover to get there. Your motor home should do fine...have fun

I was reading through the data, when it hit me...Every big game animal I have ever taken has been with a Lever...The first doe was with a borrowed Winchester 94 in 30-30...then The buck with the borrowed Marlin 30-30, then 2 cow elk with my Winchester 88 in .308 then a Buck with my Winchester 88 in ...

Bloodhound

Good to hear that guys are still hunting with Dad and with the old .32...pics would be good

Bloodhound

Have to love the .32...you can reload 170 grain bullet, the 170 grain bullet, or the ever popular 170 grain bullet...that said, I prefer the170 grain bullet :lol: It is my favorite levergun cartrage...I load and shoot it in my custom 336A Congrats on your score...shot it a lot...you too will fall in...

My son's 88 was purchased from a pawn shop...it was gummy and it took a full can of break free sprayed into the action...it came out Black....then some very light fine gun oil...and the trigger while not on par with my pre-64 model 70s, it is everybit at good as my two 88s(308 &243).

I have alwasy wanted to hunt moose with my Winchester 88 in .308

Bloodhound

I stoped into one of my favorite gunshops today...they had 3 levers that caught my eye...Browning BLR in .308 carbine length, $450, A Winchester Big Bore 94 in .356 pre-safety and pristine $795 and a Marlin 336A 30-30 very nice but seemed high at $600.... I just looked...no money in the gun fund rig...

My 88 in .308 and the one in .243 both shoot minute of coyote...and deer...and elk...and ....I used a spray gun cleaner and cleaned the trigger...It cleaned up the trigger and made it much better on both guns...I bedded my .284...but it caused the stock to split...so use caution. The 88 is a great g...

Bloodhound

Don't get me wrong....the 30-30 makes a nice coyote gun...

Its a mans rifle for sure...but the .32.....well now that just extra special

Bloodhound

Did I miss something...some of you keep saying the .32 died out...Mine is alive and well, and eating ammo like a horse!

30-30 is an Ok round...but the .32 well now thats a manly man's rifle!

Bloodhound

A second year of production Winchester 71 standard, with a bolt peep. Hurts even now to think about not having it.

Bloodhound

You may have seen this before...it was a 336 100 year medalion gun in 30-30. I added a new barrel in .32 Win Special, and made it into a 336A configuration, cleaned polished and had it blued, and then custom wood with a Lyman Peep.

I have 5 loading manuels that I use off and on, depending on what I am doing. When comparing the data in the, I always notw what the company sells as a business.....Speer is bullets, Hornady is bullets, Nosler again Bullets, so if its a bullet concern, I tend to follow those books closely....
