The rifle pictures leads me to believe the gun is in really nice shape. Short magazine version, no white line spacers, but it is drilled and tapped for a scope and I don't know if that was done back in 1948. The man is asking 480 bucks for it. Really nice looking rifle. Is is worth it gents?
Also I saw a very nice 336 R/C (?) 1953 manufacture 30/30 in practically mint condition for 525. Any help from you guys will be appreciated. jorge

Boss, if you like it and the price is 480.00 then jump on it. I would. It's not gonna break the bank and the old girl probably needs a good home.
Besides it's a classy cartridge and works well on deer and pigs.

Picked up the 32 Win (336RC) for 475. Rifle is 98%. Sweet rifle and shoots very well with 170gr Speers and W748.

I bought a 1961 model 336 in .32 Win Special last year from a Campfire member, it was $470 and a day's drive that turned into 2 because of a late spring snow storm in the mountains. I haven't fired it yet but it will be my deer rifle this year.
