Mine is no collectors item. It has non-original (read better) sights and I've got replacement walnut stocks to replace the birch. That's the main thing wrong with them, birch wood. Then again they were K Mart rifles.

Ditto on the TK. I would also turn one into a 356W brush carbine.

Marlin /Glenfield 30. It is a poor man' s Sporting Carbine. 20" barrel, birch stocks, short tube and basic iron sights. D & T for scopes.

My favorite of four different styles of .30-30.

It is real!

I just bought a model 30AS, 20 inch full, length magazine, birch stock, no checking or inprint on the wood. The gun was made in 1988. I got it for 290.00 out the ddor at a gun shop. I cannot wait to shoot it. I did a trigger job, got it down to 3.5lbs, and put on a williams peep. I need to switch out the front sight for a taller one and change to a
Ivory/white bead. I am not crazy about the brass bead.
