Found a Marlin 336 on Craigslist. Ad said it had been carried a lot and shot very little. Went to look and it is a 1960 built 18 1/2 in barrel. Had some surface rust that oil and 0000 steel wool cleaned up. Looking forward to taking it out to the range.

Nice old 336 there Papadave!! Looks like a fine shooter. Good thing you jumped on it when you did as rifles posted on Craigslist dont usually stay there long before they get flagged.

I almost had 2 follow me home today. I had to leave the place quick or they would have.

I must be exuding an aroma that Marlins love, because they keep following me home all the time. ;D
