John,

Curious if you've tried the Marlin or the Henry for comparison?

I've owned a Marlin 39. Great rifle with no ifs, ands, or buts. Wish I still had it

I simply prefer the 9422 for it's feel and balance

Late to the conversation, but I listed a 94/22 XTR on RFC a few days ago.

It's a great looking one too!

Don't know how you can get through life without a 9422 or an older 39.

Just bought a 9422 over the weekend. I paid $1,000.00 for it, but the way prices on these are escalating, I did well.

I’ve had two Marlins and one 9422, and IMO there’s no question the 9422 was smoother and better finished than either Marlin. My last 39 was purchased about a year ago and the trigger sucked and accuracy was so-so and it went down the road quickly. I was very disappointed. Great old guns with wonderful history and an amazing design, but for a shooter, and pride of ownership, I prefer the Winchester.

I have a M94/22 mag and I love it. Grouped it one day at 100 yards with 40 grain JSP Augala and it shot MOA at 100 yards.

I’ve never heard of a 39 that wasn’t accurate.

My 39M with micro groove skinny barrel is slicker’n snot. And it’s a tac driver.
I mean when the action is closed, it has the feeling of being locked up, which is good. It’s nothing if not solid. The receiver and bolt are like one when closed.
You can feel it going past the various springs and lock ups when you work the action. But as long as you don’t try and baby it along.., it’s slick.
This particular 39M has the thinner forearm stock too. That and the straight grip buttstock gives it a feel closer to the 9422.
Can’t think of a good reason to change.

But the 9422’s are nice. More select walnut I’m sure. And a higher polish blueing.
I have never heard they are inherently more accurate though.

I would love a 9422 Magnum.
The Marlin magnum uses the longer, fatter 1894 receiver I believe. And it seems like I remember reading of some difficulties with it.

Marlin also offered the Model 57M. Mine is very accurate. So is my 56. I think a lot of people just like an external hammer on a lever gun.

I bought the first 94/22 I saw in a store, 1976. I had seen and handled a prototype a couple years before (along with the SX1 prototype and the first of the Y series Model 12s.

REALLY should have kept the 9422.

Well, my notions about .22 accuracy have “evolved” over the years, no doubt, and 3/4” for 5 shots at 50 yards with hunting ammo is my current standard. The 39A I tried then sold struggled to stay under an inch consistently with any of a number of ammo choices, even some mid-grade target stuff. Scoped, it was heavy, with a heavy trigger that ruled it out as an offhand shooter for me. Got my money back, almost, selling it to a neighbor. So I had the Marlin Experience and got out. If CZ-USA ever gets some 457 stocks in, I’ll replace the one on my MTR and soldier on with that.

Had a 9422 magnum for a bit too. Probably should’ve kept that, but domestic discord dictated I convert some stuff to cash….

That one was about a 1” gun, though others report better luck. 1” is adequate for .22 mag-sized critters I think, but I also have a Hornet that beats that with .22 magnum-equivalent loads.

Yeah, the 39A is almost a different animal. Looong, heavy barrel. Would be quiet with CB Caps.

A Hornet would be cool. I got a 22 Mag for a utility type rifle: small game, varmints, predators, and possibly small pigs on rimfire only government land.

Well bidding just ended, someone got in a higher bid and almost got it, but I happened to be looking at all the bids I put in and jumped on it, so for 1100.00 CDN it will be mine.
