First gun I ever hunted with was a Marlin 336 in 1956. I grew up in Arizona centeral part of state not far from Queen Creek. Joined Navy in 1958 rode around on one of your submarines (USS Sea Poacher SS 406) home ported in Key West, Florida. Worked my way through school by working summers doing wheat harvest, Jolly Green Giant and the Rock Island Railroad. Worked for U.S. Forest Service walking through the woods for 25 years before retiring. Now I just do what my wife of 54 years tells me too. In my spare time I hunt, fish, shoot, reload and shoot some more.
My reason for joining is i'm always doing something with guns and beinging of the learn as you go club I often need advice and help from someone who has been there and done what i'm trying to do. As is the case right now...i'm the new owner of an old Marlin 1894 made in 1909. The forearm wood seems to have shrunk about 1/16 of an inch...just enough to be agravating...how do I fix it...what forum do I need to go to?
Looking forward to talking to and getting help from more of the neice gentelman and/or ladies in this group!
