Home Forums Lever Action Central Marlin 336 Lever Actions what model 336 do i have

hey guys,

i have a marlin 336 chambered in .30/30 that was made in 1975 according to the SN. i can't find what specific model i have though. where the model is stamped all it says is 336. any help would be appreciated.

In 1975, the model depended upon the config.

24" bbl, 2/3 mag, PG stock = Model 336A
20" bbl, full-length mag, PG stock = Model 336C (Carbine)
18 1/2" bbl, full-length mag, straight-grip stock = Model 336T Carbine (Texan)

.

thanks rangr44. looks like i got some measuring to do. either a carbine or a texan.

stupid me. just realized what you had wrote. i have the carbine. thanks a lot for the info.

Please let us know how it shoots................

well it seems to shoot pretty good. i've had it about 4yrs now but haven't been able to shoot it much. when i got it it i removed the bullseye at an indoor range from 25yds so at close range it's awesome. also got my first deer ever with this gun about a month ago, so it can kill a deer. finally got out to a 100yd range a couple weeks ago when i was teaching my daughter to shoot and took it with me couldn't seem to hit the broad side of a barn, but i'm sure it was my fault though as i hadn't cleaned it at all since i got it and have put a box and a half of rounds through it and i was trying to sight it in differently than i normally try to. i finally got a little serious about the gun here recently after reading about how fouling can affect accuracy so i did my research and learned how to take it apart to clean it good and now it's clean as a whistle just have to get out to the range again. but i love the gun and have always liked leverguns but had a time finding one that had a big enough stock as i'm a decent sized fella all the ones i had looked at felt like little pop guns when holding them and then i found this one the day i was heading back home for christmas it felt great and was at a good price.

Good ! I love it, when a plan comes together........
