I picked up an old 336A in 35 Rem. The guy I got it from claimed it was pre 1950 but according to my Blue Book they didn't start chambering the 35 Rem in the 336 until 1950!<BR>Does anyone have a serial number list or the address to one so I can determine the actual date. <P>The only s/n I can find is under the lever and is G62XX.<P><P>------------------<BR>I'm a sucker for those S&W J-frames
<A HREF="http://www.Savage99.com" TARGET=_blank>www.Savage99.com</A> has some serial nos. for Marlin, Savge, and Winchester lever actions. If you can't find it there you might try the factory. Hope this helps, curmudgeon
Super site.<BR>My rifle was made in 1950. That makes it 2 years older than me. But in better shape.<P>Thanks curmudgeon<P>------------------<BR>I'm a sucker for those S&W J-frames
Brophy's book on the history of Marlin firearms confirms the 1950 date. Also, your gun probably has standard rifling rather than micro-groove rifling. Nice gun!
