...The guys over at Marlinowners.com would certainly know. ...Don
FWIW, Ken "leverdude", seems to be respected at marlinowners.com WRT rifle mods, parts, experience, etc., given my surfing previous posts. Ken responds that within a manufacturing time period, the 1894, 39A, 336, 444, 45/70 should all interchange buttstocks. Assuming straight grip to straight grip, of course.
marlinowners.com comments on interchanging stocks I am seeing more and more comments to the same effect. After all of that, (just trying to expand options,) I realize that having the stock comb at scope level instead of iron sight level would be extremely nice. I know at least one version of the 444 is set up that way.
I'd still like to see someone actually swap a 336 straight grip stock with a same-vintage 1894. Now, it's just a matter that I gotta know.
