bbassi,
I was going to start a separate thread, but will just follow you up. Today, I bought a 336 exactly like the one in your link, in just as good condition and all original. Never been scoped. Only detraction is it was made in 85/86 and has the safety.
I bought it from a guy I've known and hunted with 20 years. He bought it new from Lew Horton distributors when he was moving from Boston to Vermont. He bought a box of Win.170gr. Silvertips and from that box fired this rifle six times. It's been in the safe unused since then. With the rifle today, I got that box of ammo with the six empties.
I would have thought I was crazy before this to pay $600.00 for a Marlin 336, but was thrilled to buy it for that price in this condition.
