I am like you jertex Marlin guy but thur, walked into pawn shop I go there once a week. We go to a movie on that day it was built in 1928 restored now. Any way Bob the owner now Marlin's are my weakness. But he pulls out a 9422 in .22 s,l,lr. I look at it yea it a Winchester then the price 500.00 out the door well it's home now. Cleaned up this mor then shooting this afternoon. Looked up serial # 1974 made. Real solid gun. I have looked at these for awhile but the price was right. Sounds like you have the Winchester fever. Be careful and get well soon.
