I stopped by our local Dick's Sporting Goods today to grab a box of Remington 200 gr Core-Lokt's for my 336C 35 Rem. And lo and behold. . . . .there is a brand new 336Y sitting in the rack!
The tag said it came with a scope, not sure what kind, it wasn't mounted on it (he wants the same XS Ghost Ring Sights as my 336C has) for $399 plus tax. It's a Remington made carbine but I looked it over really well and it's good to go.
I asked if they still did layaway, because I really wanted to buy it for my son, they don't do layaway anymore.
Maybe I can see if Gander Mountain or Bass Pro Shop's can order one, price match it and allow me to put in on layaway. Their prices are A LOT higher then Dick's, but they do price matches.
The best part about it was my son who will be 10 in Sept. wanted to get a Marlin 336 30-30 or 35 Rem. the same size as my 336C, which really is to big for him. He got to hold the 336Y for a few minutes. . . . .AND LOVES IT!
I REALLY HOPE Marlin/Remington continues to make these so my wife and I can get him one for Christmas. We just don't have the funds right now. If not, I guess a used one with have to do.
NYH1!
