Jeff ...
Welcome to MO's forums. It sounds like you got another nice Marlin to play with. We like lots of pictures so you really need to post some of your rifles whenever you can
.
What are you going to use your '53 30-30 for Jeff? Are you going to hunt with it, target practice, or both? If you are going to hunt with it and have "young eyes," a lot of members here use peep sights very successfully. If you are going to hunt with it and your shots are going to be say "100+" yards on the average, then you might D&T the rifle and put a good low powered scope mounted low on it.
It's your rifle Jeff and the important thing is to enjoy it to the fullest. Good shooting to you ...
