Fireball2: Enjoy your nifty Zipper and thanks for the cool pictures of the Rifle and the Varmint.
"I" had a chance at one of those Rifles years ago.
I was serving on the Board of Directors of the Washington Arms Collectors Association and one of our 16,000 members died and left his gun collection to our Associations building fund!
I helped set up the arms for auction and the one Rifle I saw that I wanted to bid on personally was a Marlin 336 in 219 Zipper.
I just fell in love with that heavy barrel lever actioned Varmint Rifle at first sight.
So up comes the Rifle for live bidding and its me and one other person bidding on it!
And dang it that person was my good friend Russ Haydon (owner of Russ Haydons Shooters Supply) and I wimped out as soon as I saw it was my friend and one time Varminting partner, Russ.
To this day I wish I had outbid Russ because I have as yet to run across another of these cool Rifles in this caliber.
Again, enjoy that nifty Rifle to the max.
Hold into the wind
