    Hey all. I'm trying to outfit my 39a with a Marble's tang sight and I'm having a hard time understanding which one to order to properly use the already tapped holes in the tang. My 39a was made in 1951. The tang layout is: [Rear of rifle] first hole with a long screw holding the stock - 0.5...

    I have a later golden 39a( w safety). I got the thumb screw as tight as I could with my fingers, and I can still feel a little play between the 2 halves. It's not the thumb screw that originally came with it. ( the originall is kind of boogered up.) Haven't gotten to take it to the range yet but...

    Hey y’all. I’ve got my grandfather’s 1947 39-A. I’ve cleaned and re-cleaned but no matter what I’ve tried the action still feels sticky and not smooth. I’d appreciate any help and advice.

    Hello Marlin Fans, I'm a new member and am seeking some gunsmithing advice. In 2001 I bought a new Golden 39A that has only seen about 200-300 rounds through it mostly by my Scouts on some of our shooting sports campouts. It has been a wonderfully accurate and great gun overall. I also have...

    Today I bought a 30-30 to go with my 77’ 39a golden I’ve had since Jr High. It has a few dings on the stock but overall Im happy with it.

    Butt plate was cracked for a bit and finally gave up and I'm having trouble finding a replacement. Back side is numbered 21 39445. I reached out Bob from Bob's Gun Shop and he didn't know where to find one. I only seem to see #6's in reproduction. Numrich seems to have a few listed but I'm not...

    I have a 39A with an MR serial number It feeds well with proofing dummys but I does not seem to like Federal Premium or CCI standard velocity. The bullet come up on the carrier but the base rises to the top of the reciever and I have to reach in with a tool to get it out of the rifle or where...
  10. Repairing Your Guns
    I want to do a little work on a 1982 39A. The gun is in fine shape, but I want to make the wood a little nicer. I want to sand it down to bare wood and refinish it, but I'm not too sure how to go about it. I like the Linseed oil but I'm not sure if I want to go that dark on it, and I think the...

    So a friend wanted to go to the shop today to get a tactical shotgun and as we were leaving I saw a 39A on the shelf and tried to walk away...two hours later I was back to buy it. I just bought a Ruger American a week ago, and NYC's laws require a 90 day period between registrations so I need to...

    If I wanted to sell: a 1951 Marlin 39A in excellent condition a 1965 Marlin 39M in almost new condition a 1971 Marlin 39D in good condition Would they sell for more, and more quickly, if sold separately or as a package? I'm not saying I would sell them, but if I did, which way would you go...

    What are the differences between the 39A and 39M mountie models? Is there anything that makes them distinct from each other?

    Had the opportunity to take the 57 Mountie & the 1899-1892 to the range yesterday. Limited the 92 to the 50 yard line due to iron sights and old eyes. Both 50&100 yard mark for the unmarked 39A Mountie old Weaver 4x. Not to bad free-handed from either. I enjoy being able to test the...

    Recently inherited a '53 39A (24" barrel, Mountie?) and have been trying to find out as much as I can about it (love to know the history of all my firearms). I was fortunate enough to stumble across this community of what appears to be passionate, educated Marlin owners. Hopefully the first of...

    First gun I ever purchased with my grandfather- 30 yrs ago :proud: 1870 39a - came with a cheap scope that has recently fallen apart. I've included a picture of the top of the gun. I'm looking for a replacement and maybe a suggestion or two on exactly how difficult it is to install it. Thank you...

    A new member sending a howdy from Virginia. I am very much looking forward to meeting other Marlin owners and sharing information about 39A's. I have three of these rifles and shoot them in Cowboy Silhouette matches. Two of them are Golden Trigger pre safety and one is from the late forties. My...

    I lost 23 firearms in a house fire. I had a Marlin 39M without the gold trigger. My dad purchased the rifle for me sometime around 1979 ish. I cannot find any without the gold trigger and someone told me they made a few of these without the gold trigger. Can someone enlighten me on the history...
