Co worker sold me a Marlin 39 TDS for $80. Bought it for a beater to throw in the back of the Jeep. Then looked around for reviews wich lead me here(great forum by the way) and found out how much it is worth  Took it out to deer camp this past season and shot it a bunch. Shoots great with the cheap 4x scope I put on it. Action needs some work to smooth it out. Fun little rifle that is worth the $80 I paid for it but not the $600 plus they sometimes fetch. I think I will keep it for what I bought it for. At least it brought me to this great forum for that I am gratefull.
I dunno, I've never been much for guns. I mean, sure, we have the usual gun by the door, another near the TV, one in the kitchen, and another in the bedroom.For the most part though, we keep our home free of guns. We are peace loving folks.
