A buddy sent me these over the weekend. He saw a model 81 (I believe that is the right model) 22 with the barrel stamped as "model 36 RC 30-30" at a show somewhere and was asking what I knew about it. Has anyone every run across anything like this before?
I am always looking for factory wood stocks!

An interesting mistake. Odd things happened at Marlin. I believe there another mismarked .22lr floating around. I remember it from Marlin Talk.
I have a .256WM with no serial no. I always figured the rare models were the one returned for a serial number.

Interesting. If there is another mismarked one floating around I would love to hear about it. I honestly thought there would be more discussion on this.

First time I've seen this. Been collecting Marlin's for 30+ years
I collect expensive hobbies.

Somebody had 1 job...to roll stamp barrels , so he must have been hung over on Monday Morning ! I know Mis-stamped coins Command High Prices , That's definitely unusual. Rich
You know you might be facing your doom if all you get is a click when you are expecting a BOOM !

The guy that has it for sale isn't asking an "outrageous" price I don't believe.

I have heard of Winchester M94s leaving the plant with 32 Special barrels that were stamped 30-30 WIN
