Very nice, looks just like my first marlin 336, the color of wood, grain, blue... except recoil pad, I wished I had it back shot my first deer a many more.... My how I had to have a 30-06 I was hunting some open fields wanted a longer range rifle... My first deer was a little over 250 yards with 30-30 one of the longest deer kills I ever made, if I could go back I would hold onto my first 30-30 !!

N i c e !

Wards, Sears, Spegels, etc did not make stuff. They bought merchandise from main line manufacturers with their brand on it. Look at enough of their guns and you will see Marlins, Remingtons, Winchester, High Standard, FN, Mossberg, and perhaps others. Seems like Sako furnished one of them them the sweet small action .222, but it may have been a side deal through Savage. Memory is not what it used to be.
