The pawn shops around here are a little high on price on the used 336s. I find much better deals on gunbroker and sites like this.
I bought a 1949 serial number 336 (pre microgroove) 30-30 for $100 three weeks ago. OK, I lied: I felt so guilty I gave him an extra $20.
He was asking $475 for a 336 in 44 mag and $575 for a 336 in 45-70.
I don't know what he was thinking. He said he had 9 phone calls but I was the first guy to wave money at him.
He posted an ad on the bulletin board at the local grocery store. I am grateful for the great price and it shoots fine.
