I have to ask, where did you get those levers on the 336's

You can also get the big loop directly from Marlin. They have to send to gunsmith for some reason but my guy got it for me. Believe it was about 65 bucks.

For those of you who have put a scope on your lever gun.
What are you using as a mounting system?

I'm looking at maybe getting the xs sight rail for my marlin 1894.

That's what I have on mine and it's solid.

Here's a couple Marlin 39's, top is a Centry model, bottom I just picked up its a 1973 39M Octagon, only made 2140 of these. Stumbled into it at a LGS

Wish I could "stumble" like that. The 39M Octagon is my "Grail Gun". Very nice. Congrats!!!

Those brass Henry's are gorgeous. I'm a little jealous.

This is how every lever gun should be shown in a picture thread.

Here is a couple with my custom 336 Marlin in .35 Rem.
Didnt mean to turn it into a hunting thread but that's how most of my pics are.






And a Savage 99 on point waiting its turn.

I'm digging that custom marlin. What all did you have done to it?

It is a 1955 model that was in really rough shape. I stripped it down and had the metal cerakoted in tungsten gray with black accents. Replaced the broken stock with a Boyd's gray laminate. Also chopped the barrel to 18". Turned out great and drops everything I shoot at. Usually use 200 gr corelok over LVR powder but I'm about out of them and have switched to Speer 180 and 200.
However I did shoot that 8 ptr with a home cast RCBS 200 gr.

 

[Dead Duck]

OK...
I see the pattern here except for this last picture.....

Did you kill that tree?

 

[randy68]

Just got bored waiting for the deer that never showed up. All I ever killed with the Savage was paper. It was a .308 and I didnt care for it so I sold it.

This topic is going too well.

We need to argue over whether .30-30 is better than .35 Rem or vice versa.

Commence!

44mag is better than both of those so there's that.
