Back in my youth,I had a Marlin 39A,my brother had a 572.I was always jealous because he shot 2 to my 1 squirrels.I said someday I'd get one.I finally did a few years back,I guess its all about the A-hole behind the wheel,lol.He really was a good shot,god bless him,he was a great brother,and the 572 is a great gun.I'd look for a 60's-80's model,pricey but worth it.I still have the 39a and the 572
