Fellows , When I came home from the war in 1970 I needed a rifle for deer hunting . I saw an ad in the Philadelphia Inquirer by a store called Edelmans in Horsham PA " Marlin Lever -30-30 or 35 Rem.-$ 74.95 " . I drove up from Delaware County and bought the rifle . The paper receipt states MARLIN 336 C . It has a gold trigger and a Marlin Medallion in the butt stock . For 30 years an older friend who was an avid gun collector told me its not a 336C it's a 336 with a micro grove barrel .
Anyway I shot a nice 7 pointer in Carbon County with that rifle in 1979 and retired it . How the hell do I determine what it is ?
Thank you in advance for your time and consideration . Happy Thanksgiving

should say 336C on the barrel. the gold medalion was the 100th anniversary in 1970. older ones from the 50's say 336RC. same gun.

Not too far from Forest Inn . A buddy of mine had some acreage off Stagecoach Road near a place called Daniels
Good luck tomorrow.

Soup thats about 10 miles from where I grew up I lived west of Lehighton in the Mahoning Valley. You were hunting the south side of Beltzville Lake.
