OP jbuck Campfire Regular J Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 1,264 Western Washington	My grampa gave me his old Marlin 39a. Its been my go to when I go out shooting with my boys. However it wants to double feed, sometimes once a magazine, sometimes every other shot. I have pulled it apart to clean, but what do I need to do to make it reliable?
