Well....

Model 80 1934-1939
Model 80E 1934-1940
Model 80C 1940-1970
Model 80DL 1940-1965
Model 80G 1960-1965

But- this came out of the Bluebook..... and there is a chance there are some errors or omissions. I have both an80DL and an 81DL- neither has a serial number. I swear one was bought new by my Dad in the 70's. Could be off.

Hope this helps.

Hello
Some good pics. would help and dose it have a micro-groove barrel.
I have 4 diffrent generations to compare the pic. with

I believe I answered my own questions. Did a little research. My gun does not have a suffex to the model #80. With that i believe it was manufactured prior to 1953, when micro groove barells were manufactured. Does this sound right? Also my receiver does not have the scope mount grooves cut into it. This should make it mfg. prior to the mid 50s.

Yes that is close . it is hard to nail down the dates exactly. I have 3 mod 80 with non micro groove barrels, only one has the scope dove tails cut in it.

Was the Marlin model 80 sold under the name Ranger model 36?

 

Yes, and 34A also.

 

I have one that dosent have the scope grooves either. Mine has the fore arm of the stock that gets wider than the rest of the stock. These were pre WW2. Dont have a exact date. You can see the stock the second one down

 

Hi, I'm new here so if I'm doing something wrong please let me know. That being said I was just given a model 80 22 and was wondering if someone could help me date it. It says model 80 no letters after the 80

 

Hey guys, check it out.

 

I have a JCHiggins that list as a model 103.228-22Cal. I bought it in 1954 at the age of 12. I paid for it with money I earned standing at the door of Sears handing out fliers for a perfumed kiosk during Christmas vacation. It has no serial number and is groved for a scope.
