I've once again totally blown my gun budget and need to move at least one...

Given I have loaded up on rimfire rifles...a rimfire rifle will hit the block.

I got this rifle unfired from a collector. It appeared unfired to me.

I have put about 100 rounds through it at the range to get the Skinner peep on paper. Of course, I have the factory box and factory rear sight (they are both in A/C storage in MO as we are selling our house and most of our stuff is out of Texas).

I was thinking this would become my retirement squirrel hunter, but closing in on 64 and my eyes are not cutting it for head-shooting squirrels with a peep and I won't scope a rifle like this...just does not seem right to me.

I looked at the last four closed deals on GunBroker when I was putting this ad together (nearly a month ago!) and they were kinda all over the map: $2,625; $1,895; $1,550 and $1,950.

I believe my rifle is as clean/valuable as any of them, if not more so. But I also think that $2,625 deal is suspect. It seems too far out of whack.

The average of the other three sales is $1,798.

I will offer this rifle here for $1,600 OBO, with both sights, FTF. If I have to ship, actual shipping charges apply. Rifle is currently in Houston, TX but will be in southern Missouri in the next month or so, as we are moving.





PM for more pics, two is my limit evidently!

Nice piece! GLWS

Unique grain in the walnut. Looks like an Indian arrow head going into the base of the checkering on the stock. You could lay that rifle besides a thousand just like it & immediately distinguish it! GLWS

More pics;

Couple more;

Realized I could put two per post....d'oh!

Price is OBO....

Nice rifle
Goodluck with OBO…. I can’t get hardly anyone to make me offers

I guess GB really is a law unto itself!

What a nice piece. By any chance did you have to install a taller front sight with that Skinner? Think I had to on my 39A.

No sir, not on this one.

I am having to install a taller front sight on my M71, after putting on a Skinner bolt peep though.

Make what you think is a reasonable offer.

$1,300 plus shipping.

The factory rear sight is available I think you said?

Thanks

Yes. It is in a box, with the rest of my loading room (one box of probably 40) in a storage unit in Springfield, MO.

I just sold my house in Houston and moved to Springfield...so still in transition. The rifle is now in Springfield, MO.

Sent PM!

So did you install the peep?

And is this a cross bolt safety gun?


Beautiful Marlin by the way.

Yes to both questions...pics above tell the tale!

This rifle is sold!
